Two held in Punjab for ‘sharing sensitive Army info’
Earlier on Saturday (May 3), Amritsar’s Rural Police arrested two men for allegedly passing on sensitive details and images of military installations in Punjab to Pakistani intelligence handlers.
The suspects, identified as Palak Sher Masih and Suraj Masih, were arrested as part of a counter-espionage operation. Police say their connections to Pakistani handlers were traced through another individual, Harpreet Singh, also known as Pittu, who is currently in jail in Amritsar.
Punjab’s Director General of Police shared the development on X (formerly Twitter), writing, “In a significant counter-espionage operation, Amritsar Rural Police on 3rd May 2025 arrested two persons, Palak Sher Masih & Suraj Masih, for their alleged role in leaking sensitive information and photographs of Army Cantonment areas and Air Bases in Amritsar. Preliminary investigation reveals their links to Pakistani intelligence operatives, established through Harpreet Singh @ Pittu @ Happy, currently lodged in Amritsar Central Jail. A case has been registered under the Official Secrets Act, and the investigation is ongoing. Further critical revelations are expected as the probe deepens. Punjab Police stands strong with Indian Army, remains unwavering in its duty to safeguard national interests. Any attempt to undermine the security of our armed forces will be met with firm and immediate action. Nation First Always. Jai Hind!”
