In the aftermath of India’s retaliatory Operation Sindoor, national security agencies are intensifying their crackdown on internal threats allegedly connected to Pakistan’s Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI).


Investigations have been launched against four Indian nationals, including two YouTubers and a businessman, for allegedly spying for Pakistan.

1. Jyoti Malhotra – YouTuber from Hisar, Haryana

  • Charges: Espionage, links with ISI operatives

  • Details:

    • Arrested by Hisar Police following central intel tip-offs.

    • Accused of being groomed by PIOs (Pakistani Intelligence Operatives).

    • Visited Pakistan and China, with a trip right before the Pahalgam terror attack.

    • Maintained contact with high-profile individuals in Pakistan, some designated persona non grata by India.

  • Current Status: In custody; under intensive interrogation.

2. Shahzad – Businessman from Tanda, Uttar Pradesh

  • Charges: Cross-border espionage, illegal smuggling, aiding ISI

    • Arrested by the UP STF (Moradabad Unit) on Sunday.

    • Accused of passing classified security-related info to handlers in Pakistan.

    • Reportedly traveled to Pakistan multiple times.

3. Devendra – Civilian from Kaithal, Haryana

  • Charges: Espionage, aiding Pakistan Army and ISI

  • Details:

    • Arrested on May 17 based on intelligence inputs.

    • Allegedly shared sensitive conflict-related updates and intel on Operation Sindoor.

    • Devices and communication under forensic probe.
