Disturbing allegations of misconduct have surfaced against Dr. Pradeep Kurulkar, a senior scientist and Director at DRDO (Defence Research and Development Organization). The Maharashtra State Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) has included these details in a recently filed charge sheet.
Presented in court by the ATS, the charge sheet spans an extensive 1,837 pages and contains compelling evidence of Kurulkar’s involvement in social media interactions with Zara Dasgupta, an alleged Pakistani intelligence agent. Shockingly, these conversations revealed discussions related to Agni, BrahMos, and Rustam missiles.
According to the charge sheet, Kurulkar stands accused of subjecting two women to abuse by manipulating them with the promise of securing jobs within DRDO. Following Kurulkar’s arrest, further revelations emerged during the investigation. The ATS team conducted extensive interrogations with the two women, who disclosed that Kurulkar had summoned them to the DRDO restroom. Detailed statements from the women were recorded by the ATS team, leading to the filing of the charge sheet in court, accusing Kurulkar of exploiting the two women.
