Her Trips Defy Sources Of Income’: Police On ‘Spy’ YouTuber Jyoti Malhotra Who Visited Pakistan

New Delhi:

The case of social media influencer Jyoti Malhotra, who has been arrested on charges of spying for Pakistan, is a big example of how modern warfare does not necessarily mean fighting at the border, a senior police officer in Haryana’s Hisar told reporters.

The role of social media influencers who can hide in plain sight has come under scrutiny now.

It also defies explanation how Ms Malhotra’s travel costs can be covered by her income, the police officer said.

While nearly all Indians who travel to Pakistan are monitored at the police level and can visit only those places mentioned in the visa, Ms Malhotra allegedly received VIP treatment due to her links with Pakistan High Commission officer Danish and other intelligence operatives. She allegedly got security from the police during her tour of Pakistan.
