A security breach has been reported at the residence of NSA Ajit Doval after an unidentified man, driving a car, tried to enter his house. The man was stopped by security personnel and has been taken into custody by Delhi Police. He is now been being interrogated by them.
Sources told news agency ANI that the man claimed that he had a chip in his body and was being controlled externally. However, police refuted the claim since no chip was detected in a MRI scan.
According to the primary investigation, he seems to be mentally disturbed. He was driving a rented car, Delhi Police said to ANI.
The man is a resident of Bengaluru. Further investigations are underway.
Ajit Doval’s residence is guarded by the Central Industrial Security Force {CISF} and heavily guarded as he falls under the Z-plus security category.
Doval is the fifth and current National Security Advisor (NSA) to PM Modi. After retirement, Doval was re-appointed as NSA and given a Cabinet rank in the second term of the Narendra Modi-led NDA government in 2019.
Earlier in January, Prime Minister Narendra Modi had cancelled his address at Ferozepur in Punjab over ‘serious’ security lapses after the Punjab government failed to deploy additional personnel owing to poor weather conditions.
