Malware found in 5 phones, no proof of Pegasus: panel

The Hindu  

A three-judge Bench led by Chief Justice of India N. V. Ramana on August 25 said the Pegasus technical committee has reported that out of 29 phones examined, five were found infected with "some malware" but that did not mean it was Pegasus spyware. However, the court said it would publish on its website the separate report of the overseeing judge, Justice R. V. Raveendran, on ways to enhance or improve the cyber security. The final report was in three parts — digital images of phones examined for spyware infection, report of the technical committee and the report of Justice Raveendran, the Bench said. On October 27 last year, the court had constituted the technical committee while observing in its 46-page Order that there was a "broad consensus that unauthorised surveillance/accessing of stored data from the phones and other devices of citizens for reasons other than nation’s security would be illegal, objectionable and a matter of concern".
