The operation unfolded as ATS received intelligence from confidential sources suggesting that ISI handlers were luring Indian Ministry of External Affairs employees, offering financial incentives in exchange for sensitive information related to the Indian Army. The information being exchanged posed a grave threat to India’s internal and external security, the agency said.
Satendra Siwal, a resident of Shahmahiuddinpur village in Hapur, was identified as a key player in this espionage network.
