'Told me she was going to Delhi, not Pakistan': YouTuber Jyoti Malhotra's father makes U-turn

Jyoti was arrested under the Official Secrets Act and relevant provisions of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), with police claiming to have found "suspicious" content on her mobile phone and laptop.

The fresh statement on Monday comes a day after Harish Malhotra claimed that his daughter, who was arrested by Haryana Police on charges of spying, had made YouTube videos and had visited Pakistan. He demanded the return of the phones taken by the police.

He said police first came to their house on Thursday. He said police have taken their bank documents, phone, laptop, and passport. He said his daughter used to visit Delhi and had been in Hisar for the last four-five days.
