A Naik Subedar with Army was today arrested by city police on the charge of sharing information about strategic locations of Army bases and deployment of units with a woman, suspected to be a Pakistani national, through the Internet.
The accused was identified as Patan Kumar Poddar, Naik Subedar of EME Unit at Secunderabad.
Commissioner's Task Force, in liaison with Army authorities, arrested Poddar acting on a tip-off, Hyderabad Police Commissioner M Mahender Reddy said in a press release.
According to police, Poddar was also involved in a network marketing business for a company named 'Secured Life', and had tried to persuade his colleagues in the Army to join his network.
Some time ago a woman, apparently a Pakistani national, befriended him through social media, and got him to give her information about Army's strategic locations and deployment of some defence units, the Commissioner said.
