Nearly three months after the unprecedented security breach at the National Security Council Secretariat (NSCS), the Delhi Police is ready to file its first chargesheet against the three accused arrested on charges of spying.

Those arrested include former brigadier and R&AW director (computers) Ujjwal Dasgupta, NSCS Indo-US Security Forum coordinator Commander Mukesh Saini and its senior system analyst Shib Shanker Paul. All three have been booked under various section of Official Secrets Act and Indian Penal Code.

In the chargesheet, which will be filed in a couple of days, the Delhi Police has given details about the classified information that was passed onto US diplomat Rosanna Minchew.

Investigations so far have revealed that around 75 classified documents related to Intelligence Bureau, Military Intelligence and R&AW upgradation plans were passed onto Minchew.

The chargesheet, which runs into hundreds of pages, says the US spy has not yet been traced.

The Delhi Police contacted Interpol for details of an IP address, which S S Paul had passed onto Minchew. It was found that the NSCS IP address had been used by unidentified persons in the US.

Three pen drives recovered from a well in Chankyapuri have revealed that seven classified documents, including defence documents on Stegno Tease Version 1.0, had been passed onto to Minchew by Dasgupta. Some of the software was developed by the Faculty of Communication Engineering of the Military College of Engineering in Mhow.

Delhi Police will also file a report from CFSL, Rohini and Government Examiner of Questioned Documents, Chandigarh. Thousands of pages of mobile phone records — showing that all three accused were in regular contact with the US diplomat and had travelled together to various destinations — will be filed as annexure along with the chargesheet.
