A 20-year-old Mumbai resident, Yash Singh, was arrested for allegedly spying on sensitive sites, including the city's Chabad House, for "anti-national handlers." He reportedly admitted to taking pictures, recording vehicle details, and gathering information on Jewish individuals in exchange for money. The handlers' affiliations were described as linked to mafia gangs and subversive elements, with their origin unspecified. This comes years after the 2008 terror attacks that targeted the Chabad House.
