The accused had been in contact with a PIO via Facebook and WhatsApp between November 2021 and May 2023.The accused, employed as a fabricator at Mazagon Dock Shipbuilders Ltd., began his journey after completing a Fitter course at an ITI college in Alibaug, joining the shipbuilders in May 2014.In December 2023, the Maharashtra ATS apprehended a 23-year-old individual employed at Mazgaon Dockyard in Mumbai, on suspicion of sharing confidential information with an agent of a Pakistan-based Intelligence Operative (PIO).The case is highly sensitive because two years ago, INS Udaygiri was commissioned into the Indian Navy as a frontline warship with modern technology, as part of the 'Project 17A' frigate programme.
