Madhya Pradesh police recently interrogated YouTuber Jyoti Malhotra in Haryana amidst espionage investigations, following her visit to the Mahakaleshwar Temple in Ujjain. Authorities revealed that despite rigorous questioning, nothing incriminating came to light.

Malhotra, aged 33 and based in Hisar, Haryana, is a content creator known for her channel 'Travel with JO'. Her arrest is part of a broader investigation into a potential Pakistan-linked spy network operating across northern India.
