The National Investigation Agency (NIA) has charge-sheeted another individual in the Indian Navy spying case involving Pakistani intelligence operatives.
Amaan Salim Shaikh is a key accused in the case, which involves a conspiracy by Pakistani agents to ‘honey-trap’ Indian Navy personnel to gather secret information regarding defense establishments.
The anti-terror agency filed a supplementary chargesheet on Friday in the NIA special court at Visakhapatnam, charging Amaan, a resident of Mumbai (Maharashtra), under various sections of the Indian Penal Code and the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act.
The NIA, which took over the case on June 5 last year, discovered during its investigation that Amaan was working for a suspected Pakistani agent, Usman, to further the anti-India conspiracy. He was also receiving money from other suspected Pakistani operatives, including Meer Balaj Khan, Alven, and certain other individuals, through crypto channels for completing tasks assigned by the Pakistani intelligence operatives.
On November 6, 2023, the NIA had charge-sheeted two accused persons in connection with the case. Further investigations in the case, initially registered at the Counter Intelligence Cell police station in Vijayawada, Andhra Pradesh, are underway.
