Manmohan S started his espionage activities in January 2015 and his wife joined him in 2017, the court was told. The couple confessed to meeting RAW agents and handing them information. India’s foreign intelligence service reportedly paid them €7,200 (around A$11,000) for their services.

The German authorities indicted the two in April 2019.

In 2016, a German immigration official was also accused of spying on members of the Sikh community.
