Lucknow (Uttar Pradesh): Several Indian youth have been found involved in espionage activities like sharing confidential security information with Pakistan's ISI, jeopardising national security for monetary gain. Recently, the role of Ram Singh, who worked in outsourcing for the Indian Navy in Goa, was exposed.
According to the Uttar Pradesh Anti-Terrorism Squad, Singh, a resident of Gorakhpur Pipraich, was apprehended following a meticulous investigation. Singh's role in installing insulation for key Indian warships, including INS Vikrant and INS Vikramaditya Swarna, has raised concerns over the security breach.
Singh's involvement with Pakistan's ISI (Inter-Services Intelligence) came to light after he was befriended by a member posing as 'Kriti Singh' on social media. Under the guise of friendship, Singh was coerced into sharing sensitive information in exchange for financial rewards.
During interrogation, Singh revealed a network of individuals complicit in espionage activities. Lucky Jat, Macky Sidhu, Atul Dubey, Ravi Sharma, Savita, Daksheel Naresh, Upendra Gadkani, and Ranjan Kumar Pandey were among those implicated. They allegedly provided confidential Navy-related information to ISI agents in exchange for nominal payments.
