‘Concrete evidence, Jyoti Malhotra worked as Pak spy’: Police in 2,500 page chargesheet

New Delhi: After three months of investigation, Hisar Police have filed a massive 2,500-page chargesheet against YouTuber Jyoti Malhotra, accusing her of spying for Pakistan, media reports said.
Investigators claim they have uncovered “concrete evidence” linking her to espionage activities, reported NDTV.
Malhotra, also known as Jyoti Rani, ran a travel vlog under the name Travel With Jo.
She was arrested from Haryana’s Hisar in May for her alleged links with Pakistan-based handlers.
Police sources allege she was in regular contact with Ehsan-ur-Rahim alias Danish, who was posted at the Pakistan High Commission in New Delhi.
Malhotra is also said to have travelled to Pakistan at least twice.
Rahim was expelled from India after the Pahalgam terror attack and Operation Sindoor, when he was declared persona non grata for his role in leaking critical details about Indian Army troop movements.
The chargesheet claims Malhotra’s association with Pakistan was not limited to Rahim. She is alleged to have been in touch with ISI operatives Shakir, Hasan Ali, and Nasir Dhillon as well.
“During the investigation, we have found concrete evidence that the YouTuber was spying for Pakistan,” a source told NDTV.
Investigators have detailed her frequent cross-border travel, which raised further suspicions.
According to the chargesheet, she went to Pakistan on April 17 last year and stayed until May 15.
Less than a month later, on June 10, she left for China, where she remained until July before heading to Nepal.
Her earlier trips had also caught the attention of security agencies.
“When Malhotra travelled to Pakistan via the Kartarpur Corridor, she met the chief minister of Pakistan Punjab and also interviewed former PM Nawaz Sharif’s daughter, Maryam Nawaz Sharif,” the source added, according to the report.
A Haryana officer had previously stated that the 33-year-old maintained contact with a Pakistani High Commission official during the four-day standoff between India and Pakistan following the Pahalgam attack.
The officer clarified, however, that she did not have direct access to classified operational information.
