IAF Wing Commander MS Sabharwal arrested for allegedly leaking secrets
An Indian Air Force officer, Wing Commander MS Sabharwal, has been arrested for allegedly leaking top-secret military details to an enemy contact.
The information shared included war plans and drone trial data, reportedly in exchange for money and nude photos.
The case has sparked big concerns about how safe India's defense secrets really are.
Sabharwal leaked deployment sites, drone tests
Investigators say Sabharwal sent a page from his unit's confidential war plan, revealing two important deployment sites chosen over five years, which now need to be reevaluated.
He also shared videos of drone tests that exposed launch timings and targeting methods, making it easier for adversaries to figure out IAF strategies.
Intelligence officials called this a major setback since those locations were picked for their unique advantages.
The IAF is still digging into the breach.
