Jammu Police Arrest Truck Driver for Alleged ISI-Linked Digital Espionage in Kathua
Jammu and Kashmir Police arrested a 24-year-old truck driver, Aman, in Kathua for allegedly spying for Pakistan's ISI. He was reportedly lured through a honey-trap operation and tasked with surveilling military sites using a SIM-enabled CCTV camera installed outside his home. The camera livestreamed sensitive border activity to handlers, with payments routed via Dubai. This case marks a shift to more advanced digital espionage tactics, following a similar arrest in the region months earlier. Investigations are ongoing under the Official Secrets Act.
