The New York Times story leads one to believe that it is the CIA which is instigating mutiny in the Pakistani army, according to the blog at Indian Punchline
"There is a US attempt to exploit the growing indiscipline within the Pak army and, if possible, to trigger a mutiny, which will bog down the army leadership in a serious 'domestic' crisis that leaves no time for them for the foreseeable future to play any forceful role in Afghanistan.
"In turn, it leaves the Americans a free hand to pursue their own agenda.
"Time is of the essence of the matter and the US desperately wants direct access to the Taliban leadership so as to strike a deal with them without the ISI or Hamid Karzai coming in between.
"The prime US objective is that Taliban should somehow come to a compromise with them on the single most crucial issue of permanent US military bases in Afghanistan."
