Health Worker Arrested for Spying, Sent New IAF & BSF Sites Visuals to Pak, Got ₹40,000
In a shocking revelation, a Gujarat-based health worker has been arrested for spying on behalf of Pakistan. Sahdev Singh Gohil, a 35-year-old health worker, was caught sharing sensitive information about newly-constructed or under-construction Indian Air Force (IAF) and Border Security Force (BSF) sites with a Pakistani agent. What’s even more alarming is that Gohil was paid a whopping ₹40,000 cash by an unidentified man for his services.
According to reports, Gohil, a resident of Gujarat’s Rajkot district, was arrested by the police on charges of spying and sharing critical information with a Pakistani agent. The arrest was made after a thorough investigation and surveillance, which revealed that Gohil had been in touch with the Pakistani agent through WhatsApp.
The authorities claim that Gohil had bought a SIM card using his Aadhaar card and had activated WhatsApp on it, allowing the Pakistani agent to communicate with him. Gohil would then share photos and videos of sensitive locations, including IAF and BSF sites, with the agent. These locations were under construction or had recently been completed, providing valuable intel to Pakistan.
The investigation revealed that Gohil had been receiving cash payments from an unidentified man for his services. He had received a total of ₹40,000 in cash from the man, who is yet to be identified. The police are working to identify the man and bring him to justice.
Gohil’s motives for spying are still unclear, but it’s believed that he was motivated by greed. The ₹40,000 cash payment was likely too enticing for him to resist, despite the severe consequences he could have faced if caught.
This incident highlights the dangers of espionage and the importance of vigilance in protecting national security. It also underscores the need for stricter regulations and monitoring of SIM cards and other digital communication tools.
The police have taken Gohil into custody and are investigating the matter further. An FIR has been filed against him under relevant sections of the Indian Penal Code and the Official Secrets Act. The authorities are also working to identify and apprehend the Pakistani agent who was in touch with Gohil.
This incident is a stark reminder of the threats that India faces from foreign powers and the importance of remaining vigilant in protecting our national security. It’s crucial that we take all necessary steps to prevent such incidents in the future and ensure that our country remains safe and secure.
