Army Officer's Wife Booked in Jammu for Alleged Espionage Linked to Foreign IntelligencePreviousNext

Jammu and Kashmir Police have registered an FIR against the wife of a senior Army officer for allegedly sharing sensitive information with foreign intelligence operatives, including those linked to China. The woman, a freelance researcher from Telangana, is suspected of preparing analytical papers on defence and geopolitical issues under the influence of operatives posing as academicians. She has not been arrested, and preliminary inquiries have not confirmed the sharing of classified information. Investigations continue into her activities, communications, and financial transactions.
