Speaking to ANI on Wednesday, advocate Shukla stated that the case towards his consumer was primarily based solely on unsubstantiated claims of hyperlinks to Pakistan’s spy company, the ISI.

“Jasbir Singh was arrested yesterday, and the court sent him to a 3-day Police remand. On June 7, he will be produced in court again. As per the police FIR, there are 3 allegations against him. One is that he gets foreign funding, the second is that he has links with the ISI, and the third is that he has sensitive data with him. He used to appear before the State Special Operations Cell as a responsible citizen whenever he was summoned. If he had any malicious intentions, he would have avoided it,” stated Shukla.
