Maharashtra ATS Arrests Thane Resident for Spying for Pakistan: Official

  • In May 2025, the Maharashtra Anti-Terrorism Squad detained Ravindra Murlidhar Verma, a 27-year-old resident of Thane, who was allegedly involved in passing sensitive information to Pakistani intelligence.
  • Verma was reportedly honey-trapped by a Pakistani intelligence agent posing as a woman on social media who befriended him on Facebook and elicited sensitive information.
  • Ravindra Murlidhar Verma, a junior engineer at a defense technology company in Mumbai, was arrested for transmitting classified details about a sensitive naval facility through WhatsApp during the period from November 2024 to March 2025.
  • He was formally arrested under provisions relating to espionage and criminal conspiracy and was sent to ATS custody by the court until Monday.
  • This arrest comes amid a wider effort to dismantle espionage networks after the terror attack in Pahalgam on April 22, with investigations targeting multiple suspects across various states linked to Pakistani intelligence.
