A man from Punjab’s Pathankot district has been arrested on allegations of spying for Pakistan-based handlers after police uncovered a covert surveillance setup reportedly used to monitor Indian Army and paramilitary movement along National Highway-44.
The accused, identified as Baljit Singh alias Bittu from Chakk Dhariwal village, allegedly installed an internet-enabled CCTV camera at a roadside shop near a bridge on the Pathankot–Jammu stretch of NH-44. Investigators claim the live footage was being transmitted to handlers operating from Pakistan and abroad.
