A high-profile investigation in India involves six Ukrainian citizens and an American, detained for allegedly violating anti-terror laws. They were arrested at airports in Calcutta, Lucknow, and Delhi. The group entered India on tourist visas but traveled to Mizoram without the necessary permits and allegedly crossed into Myanmar illegally. The case may have political implications, possibly linked to information provided by Russia. The American, Matthew V., has a background in military conflicts and founded a security consulting firm involved in training Ukrainian soldiers.
