Agra Court Acquits Jhansi Man in Pakistan Spy Case After 22 Years
An Agra court acquitted Jameel Ahmed, a Jhansi resident, after 22 years of trial on charges of spying for Pakistan and possessing sensitive documents. Arrested in 2004 based on statements from two Pakistani nationals, he faced multiple charges including cheating by personation and violations of the Passport, Foreigners, and Official Secrets Acts. The court ruled the prosecution failed to provide conclusive evidence, noting issues with key evidence like a damaged CD and reliance on co-accused testimonies, leading to his acquittal.
