New Delhi, Feb 9 (IBNS): In a major development, an  Air Force officer was arrested on charges of   espionage and passing on classified information to Pakistani intelligence agency Inter-Services Intelligence or ISI from Delhi, media reports said.

Group Captain Arun Marwaha, 51, was honey-trapped by a Pakistani agent who chatted with him on WhatsApp pretending to be a woman, say investigators, reported NDTV.
