The arrest of the officer, who was deployed with the anti-hijacking unit at the Srinagar International Airport, has shocked the security forces operating in the valley as the officer was involved in several anti-terrorism operations in the militancy-hit Jammu and Kashmir in the past.

He was posing with foreign envoys during their official visit to Kashmir to get a first-hand account on the situation in J&amp;K following the abrogation of J&amp;K special status which raised serval questions on his deployment at a sensitive location despite his tainted tenure.&nbsp;

Questions are also being raised on the processes involving in the vetting officers for gallantry as Davinder Singh was awarded President's medal on the eve of India's Independence day. &nbsp;
