New delhi date. Wednesday 19 February 2020

Eleven Navy personnel are trapped in Pakistan's private agency ISI's Honey Trap. So far, 13 people, including 11 Navy personnel, have been arrested in Pakistani intelligence rackets.

The NIA said that police seized some of these people from Navy base in the country, including Mumbai, Karwad and Visakhapatnam. These people have been accused of leaking sensitive information of the Indian Navy to their social media profile.

According to sources, the naval personnel's social media profile is being restructured. It is currently being investigated how many suspects in the workforce have been linked.

The operation was jointly initiated by Andhra Pradesh Police, Naval Private and Central Private Agencies when seven Navy personnel involved in the spying case were arrested last December.
