During the investigation, it was also discovered that his wife’s bank account had some unusual activity.
Meanwhile, the role of Pakistan’s intelligence agency, the ISI, is being investigated, according to sources.
It’s worth noting that this isn’t the first time ISI handlers have used a defence employee as a honeypot. Pakistani intelligence agencies are always trying to corner India and obtain vital information about the Indian security system through honey-trapping young people.
