In a major development in the chain of espionage cases emerging in the country, two persons were picked up for interrogation for allegedly aiding their handler in Pakistan to get access to Indian phone numbers to be used to honeytrap Indian officials.

The arrested suspect was identified as Haseen, who allegedly shared OTPs with his handler across the border to access WhatsApp and other social media platforms. His brother, Qasim, is also under interrogation, the officials said.

“In a major espionage case, ISI is found using Indian phone numbers from Pakistan. Delhi Police contacted a DRDO officer targeted in the trap," officials said, as per the news agency IANS.

Several cases of spying for Pakistan have emerged since the Pahalgam terror attack on April 22. Several people have been arrested for allegedly spying for Pakistan, including YouTuber Jyoti Malhotra, a CRPF jawan, a Rajasthan man, and another employee of the Rajasthan government, among others.
