I am honestly a bit bored of Raymond Davis now but since I was covering this story I will write till this episode is over. So the latest update is that Raymond Davis is an undercover CIA contractor as confirmed by the Pakistani intelligence officials.
They say that there is no doubt that he was working with CIA as a contractor. The Pakistani intelligence officers are pretty sure that Raymond was doing things that were not in the best interest of the national security of Pakistan. It is said that he had close links with Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP). He was part of a team that was conducting surveillance on militant groups inside Pakistan. They also believe Davis was masterminding terrorist activities in different parts of Pakistan and was recruiting young people from Punjab for the Taliban. The cellphone records show that Davis had links with 33 Pakistanis of which 27 were militants from TTP and Lashkar-e-Jhangvi.
According to more updates, it was during Musharraf's time in 2006 when a deal was cracked that allowed USA to conduct CIA operations in Pakistan so that they would know that Pakistan was not helping Taliban insurgents in anyway. As per this deal, Raymond Davis' job was to trail links of the Taliban and Al Qaeda in different parts of Pakistan but instead it was discovered that he had developed close ties with the TTP.
USA is now worried about global issues like Tunisia, Libya and Talibans spreading on a wider scale but it still wants Davis to be released soon.
On the other hand, there are reports on how the government is putting pressure on the victims families to withdraw the case while the religious political parties are pressurizing them to not let it go. There will be no espionage case against Davis but he will be tried for the double murders case.
