The Uttar Pradesh Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) has apprehended a 24-year-old Lance Naik from the Indian Navy on allegations of espionage for Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI).

This incident raises significant concerns regarding national security and the vulnerabilities within the armed forces.
