Amid the renewed Indo-Pak tensions after the Pahalgam terror attack on April 22, the Delhi Police on Thursday arrested a man from Rajasthan for allegedly aiding Pakistani Intelligence Operatives (PIOs) by supplying Indian mobile SIM cards for espionage activities.
The man has been identified as 34-year-old Kasim, a resident of Rajasthan's Gangora village in Deeg district.
Officials told PTI that Kasim had travelled to Pakistan twice - once in August 2024 and again in March 2025, and stayed there for about 90 days. Police suspects that during his visits, he met officials of the Pakistan's spy agency Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI).
"In September 2024, the Special Cell received intelligence inputs that Indian mobile numbers were being misused by PIOs to gather sensitive information related to the Indian Army and government establishments. These mobile SIM cards were allegedly procured in India and sent across the border with the help of Indian nationals," the officer said.
The officials also mentioned that using social media on these Indian SIMs, PIOs contacted Indians to extract classified information pertaining to sensitive installations and departments.
Further investigation is underway to expose the full extent of the espionage network and identify other Indian associates involved in the conspiracy, police said.
