MOSCOW: An employee at India’s embassy in Moscow was arrested for allegedly spying for Pakistan, a development that could sour relations between the South Asian neighbors, foreign media reported.
Satyendra Siwal, a security assistant in the Moscow embassy, was arrested by the Uttar Pradesh Anti-Terrorism Squad (UP ATS). The accused is a native of the northern Indian city of Hapur in Uttar Pradesh. Siwal, who has been posted in Moscow since 2021, is suspected of leaking information about India’s defence and foreign relations, the police said in the statement. The spy allegations risk fresh tensions between India and Pakistan, which have struggled to get along for decades. India’s Ministry of External Affairs is aware of the arrest and assisting investigators, according to senior foreign ministry officials, who asked not to be named because of the sensitivity of the issue.
