Summary: The spy investigation in Haryana widens as authorities examine multiple YouTube channels linked to a suspected spy network.

The Haryana government expanded its espionage investigation, and it is currently looking into multiple YouTube channels. This comes after a Hisar YouTuber was recently arrested for allegedly sharing private information with foreign agents.

So far, twelve individuals have been arrested across different states, with five hailing from Haryana. The widening scope of the probe has revealed a disturbing mix of influencers, public employees, and civilians who may be used as conduits in a larger spy operation.

According to officials, a detailed investigation is underway, examining bank data, travel logs, and movies published to various YouTube channels. The goal is to find any indicators of cooperation with foreign intelligence agencies. Authorities also hinted that some of the accounts they were looking into may have been secretly used to spread propaganda or gather intelligence.

To encourage online creators to provide responsible and patriotic content, the state is thinking of starting awareness campaigns. In the meantime, people have been urged to stay vigilant and refrain from interacting with dubious online content that can endanger national security.

The investigation continues, with more arrests likely in the coming days as security agencies tighten the net around this digital espionage web.
