Soon Lt General Faiz Hameed will complete his tenure as Director General Inter Services Intelligence (DG ISI). General Headquarters (GHQ) will now appoint a three star General for this post.
Lt General Faiz Hameed is the 24th Director General of Inter Services Intelligence. He was appointed DG ISI in 2019. Now that General Faiz Hameed is about to complete his term and GHQ will appoint another officer for the responsibility.
According to some defence analysts, a very unexpected name is circulating. The person who is expected to be the next DG ISI is former Director General Inter Services Public Relations (DG ISPR), Lt General Asif Ghafoor.
However, it is not confirmed by any means that General Asif Ghafoor will be appointed. But as per credible sources, General Asif Ghafoor who is well known for countering and exposing Indian disinfo and propaganda, will take charge of ISI after General Faiz Hameed. During the tenure of General Asif Ghafoor as DG ISPR, India claimed ISPR to be more lethal than ISI.
