Nadiad Court Rejects Bail for Alleged Pakistani Spy
A woman named Rashmani Pal was arrested in December for allegedly spying for Pakistan.
She is accused of befriending army soldiers to get information about their units.
The court in Nadiad, Gujarat, recently decided not to grant her bail because the government said she might interfere with the investigation and destroy important evidence.
The court also found messages between Pal and her handlers in Pakistan.
Pal is said to have used fake names and tricked 16 army soldiers into talking to her.
Nadiad Sessions Court rejected the bail plea of Rashmani Pal, accused of espionage by Gujarat ATS.
Pal allegedly honey-trapped army jawans to reveal sensitive information about their units.
Court denied bail citing the risk of Pal destroying evidence and derailing the investigation.
Investigators found direct communication between Pal and Pakistani handlers via WhatsApp and other text messages.
Pal allegedly used multiple fake identities to contact 16 army jawans and gather information.
