On August 21, Madhya Pradesh Anti-Terrorism Squad personnel arrested three suspects, including Balram Singh, Sunil Singh and Shubham Mishra, in Madhya Pradesh after receiving a specific tip-off that they were in regular touch with people based in Pakistan, reports Indian Express. Another two are still being questioned. They were allegedly transferring money to certain accounts on the directions of their Pakistani handlers. The police have collected details of more than 25 bank accounts where transactions related to the racket were allegedly taking place.
One of three accused, Balram Singh, had been arrested in February 2017 in a similar case but was released on bail a few months ago.
