India’s battle against terrorism just took a shocking turn — a Navy staffer posted at Delhi Headquarters has been arrested for spying for Pakistan’s ISI during the highly sensitive Operation Sindoor, exposing a deep breach in India’s defence network.
Vishal Yadav, a clerk from Haryana, landed in the custody of the Rajasthan Police’s CID Intelligence after being under the radar for months. Officials revealed that he had been frequently communicating with a woman on social media, who was later identified as an ISI agent operating under the fake name ‘Priya Sharma’. In return for leaking highly classified naval operations data, he was paid through cryptocurrency and direct bank transfers.
According to reports, forensic scans of Yadav’s mobile phone revealed years of data exchange, including during Operation Sindoor, India’s swift and powerful military strike against terror hubs in PoK and Pakistan’s Punjab, carried out in retaliation to the April Pahalgam terror attack that killed 26 civilians.
Yadav’s background reveals another twist — he was reportedly hooked to online gaming, suffered massive financial losses, and was allegedly lured by money and manipulation into the ISI’s trap. The trail of digital money — crypto wallets and shady transfers — is now under the scanner.
At present, Yadav is under intense questioning at the Central Interrogation Centre in Jaipur, where multiple intelligence agencies are probing the scale of the security breach and investigating the possible involvement of other insiders in the espionage network.
Crackdown Post Pahalgam Attack: Spy Network Under the Radar
Since the brutal Pahalgam attack, security agencies have been tightening the noose on suspected Pak-backed espionage networks across the country. In recent days:
- Shakur Khan, a Rajasthan govt employee, was caught spying in Jaisalmer.
- Jyoti Malhotra, a YouTuber from Haryana, was arrested for alleged links with a Pakistani diplomat at their High Commission in Delhi — also during Operation Sindoor.
🇮🇳 India’s Stand Is Clear: Terrorism Aur Gaddari Dono Ka Koi Maaf Nahi!
From surgical strikes to cyber surveillance, India is making it loud and clear — internal betrayal will be crushed with the same intensity as cross-border threats. The battle is no longer just on the borders — it’s within the networks, and India is cleaning house.
