Deshbhakt Ya Dhokebaaz? Jyoti Malhotra Ki Pakistani Spy Story

توضیحات:

Jyoti Malhotra, a 33‑year‑old travel vlogger from Hisar, Haryana, was arrested on May 17, 2025, on charges of espionage for Pakistan. Authorities allege that she shared sensitive information about India’s border areas and blackout protocols during Operation Sindoor with Pakistani intelligence operatives. Investigations reveal that Malhotra first visited Pakistan in April 2023 under the pretext of attending the Vaisakhi festival, where she maintained contact with Pakistani agents, including Ehsan‑ur‑Rahim, a staffer at the Pakistan High Commission in Delhi who was later expelled for espionage activities. Malhotra is accused of using encrypted messaging apps like WhatsApp and Telegram to communicate with her handlers. During interrogations, she confessed to these interactions and expressed no remorse for her actions. Her arrest has raised concerns about the potential misuse of social media influencers by foreign intelligence agencies, prompting authorities to scrutinize other influencers who have traveled to Pakistan or have connections with Pakistani nationals. Malhotra remains in police custody as investigations continue. No evidence has been found linking her to terrorist organizations, and claims about her converting to Islam or marrying a Pakistani spy remain unsubstantiated.
