From ‘weak border’ to ‘full of love’: What YouTuber turned 'spy' Jyoti Malhotra’s diary reveals about Pakistan

YouTuber Jyoti Malhotra, now under arrest for alleged espionage, portrayed an affectionate and idyllic image of Pakistan in diary entries recovered by police. Her emotional reflections, revealed after her arrest, contrast starkly with the mounting evidence of suspected ties to Pakistan’s intelligence network. Authorities claim her travels, contacts, and encrypted communication point to a deeper role in cross-border spying operations. The probe now spans multiple states and involves scrutiny of her digital footprint, financial transactions, and alleged handlers.
