Analysis of Rona Wilson’s phone found evidence it was infected with NSO Group spyware three months before arrest
The Indian government’s case against Rona Wilson, a jailed Indian activist and critic of Narendra Modi’s administration, is expected to face new scrutiny following allegations that his mobile phone was hacked using Israeli-made spyware just months before his controversial arrest.
A forensic analysis of Wilson’s phone by Amnesty International found evidence that it was infected with NSO Group spyware, called Pegasus, between July 2017 and March 2018, three months before his arrest on terror-related charges.
