The US Embassy however refused to comment on the issue but said that they will look into the matter. If the PTI's claims are indeed true, this will be the second time that anti-drone campaigners have revealed a top US spy in Pakistan.

In 2010, Jonathan Banks another CIA Chief was named in criminal proceedings initiated after a drone strike and was later forced to leave the country.

Khan has always been against the drone strikes in Pakistan and has said that these drone strikes were mostly responsible for the home grown terrorism in Pakistan. The drone strikes have become a matter of debate in the country again since in the past few years the strikes have increased.
