UP Man, Enticed by Pakistani Agent 'Neha', Detained for Revealing Military Information
The Anti-Terrorism Squad of Uttar Pradesh has apprehended an individual employed at an ordnance factory in Firozabad on charges of espionage for Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence, known as ISI.
The individual, identified as Ravindra Kumar, allegedly disclosed sensitive details, such as data relating to the Gangayaan space initiative and the testing of a military logistics-drone, according to the UP ATS chief, Nilabja Choudhary, on Friday.
Another person connected to Ravindra Kumar has also been taken into custody.
Mr. Choudhary mentioned that UP ATS, along with other security agencies, had received warnings regarding Ravindra Kumar's potential data leaks to a female operative—code-named Neha Sharma—associated with the ISI.
"Our Agra division conducted an initial questioning session with Ravindra Kumar, after which he was summoned to the ATS main office for in-depth inquiry. It was uncovered that he had divulged highly sensitive information through a contact referred to as 'Neha,'” the senior officer shared with journalists.
The contact for the handler, according to Mr. Choudhary, was stored in Ravindra Kumar's phone under the alias 'Chandan Store Keeper 2.' Sharma established communication with Kumar through Facebook.
