YouTuber Jyoti Malhotra Spying Case:
State police and central agencies are questioning all those apprehended for spying post 'Operation Sindur', including the prominent YouTuber Jyoti Malhotra. Through her gadgets and chats, they are piecing together the nature of her relationship with Danish at the Pakistani High Commission. Let’s dive into the full story.
Jyoti Malhotra, a 33-year-old from Hisar, Haryana, was mainly known as a YouTuber. However, recent allegations have marred her name with espionage accusations. Jyoti is accused of spying for the ISI, leaking India's sensitive information and aligning with digital warfare against India.
During the times of COVID-19 joblessness, Jyoti embarked on blogging about travel. In pursuit of views, likes, and shares, she found herself engulfed in a conspiracy. Her arrest has led to further probing, unraveling revealing facts and clues.
What were Jyoti's feelings towards Pakistan? Her diary holds the secrets and her innermost thoughts, disclosing ties with Pakistan. Jyoti's diary entries are a testament to her daily activities. In one entry, she notes:
'After a 10-day journey to Pakistan, I'm back in India, my homeland. I was showered with love from the people of Pakistan. Subscribers and friends came to meet us. The two days traveling Lahore felt too short. Who knows how long the border distances will last, but may they erase the grievances between us. We all live on the same earth. I urge the Pakistani government to open more ways to temples and gurudwaras for Indians.'
Jyoti's trips to Pakistan span the years 2023, 2024, and again this year. She mentions one such trip in her diary, although the specifics that investigators are eager to uncover remain unpenned. Questions arise about the finances behind these visits, as her expenses far exceeded her income.
Solid evidence against Jyoti includes her connection with Danish, an embassy employee, and detailed WhatsApp chats with ISI officer Ali Hasan. Jyoti's confession confirms saving Pakistani agents' numbers under false names to avoid suspicion.
Embassy worker Danish ensnared Jyoti, using her as a pawn. Was Filip's network recruiting more spies through her? While Hisar police issued a statement regarding her custody, they noted that she hasn't been questioned by central agencies yet. No military or strategic information link has surfaced.
Police sent Jyoti's devices for analysis and are yet to retrieve her diary. Investigations are ongoing into four bank accounts. While identified links with Pakistani officials exist, no connection to terrorist activities has been established. Claims regarding Jyoti's marriage or religious conversion have been denied by police.
Jyoti's relationship with Danish led her to actions now resulting in her arrest. Agencies are rigorously probing her network and espionage activities, prioritizing dissection of her ties with Danish, the strongest link to the spying brigade. Numerous co-accused reveal Danish's assistance.
In 2023, Danish facilitated a visa for Jyoti at the Pakistani Embassy, tightening their bond over the following months until March this year. Were they in touch through messages? Investigative bodies are decoding her encrypted communications.
Jyoti utilized Signal, Telegram, TOR, and VPN technologies. Evidence suggests her video scripts were pre-approved and transmitted through cloud computing, maintaining diplomatic connections. Suspicions arise around foreign SIM card usage during overseas trips.
Was each action a directive from Danish? Unveiling his potential ISI agent role camouflaged as an embassy worker is crucial. He befriended through assistance, later acquainting pawns to ISI officials, incorporating them into anti-India plots.
Confession details Jyoti's meeting with Ali Hasan in Pakistan, organized at Danish's behest, facilitating her stay and travels and introducing her to Pakistani intelligence corridors. Agencies strive to authenticate her admissions through technical scrutiny.
