In a major development, Arunachal Pradesh Police have arrested two persons for allegedly spying for Pakistani handlers.

The duo, identified as Nazir Ahmad Malik and Sabir Ahmed Mir, both residents of Kupwara in Jammu & Kashmir, were arrested on November 21 after police received credible inputs about their suspected involvement in espionage activities.

Nazir was detained first from Ganga village, and based on the information he provided, Sabir was picked up from Abotani Colony the same day.

According to reports, the two had been sharing sensitive information — including details of Army movements and installations in Arunachal Pradesh — with Pakistani handlers through a Telegram channel.

Police officials said the scope of the investigation has now widened, and more arrests are likely.
