Nagpur woman who crossed into Pakistan used Google Maps to cross over: Police
The widely used navigation platform, she claimed, guided her route across the border, police sources said.
Sunita Jamgade had earlier maintained that she visited Pakistan to seek business opportunities. (Express Photo) Sunita Jamgade, a 43-year-old woman from Nagpur, who crossed the Line of Control (LoC) last month from Hunderman village in Kargil, told police during interrogation that she used Google Maps to find her way into Pakistan. The widely used navigation platform, she claimed, guided her route across the border, police sources said.
Kapil Nagar Police Station’s Inspector, Satish Aade said that a suspicious mobile application was found installed on Sunita’s device. For now, the app remains unopened, as investigators are unsure about its purpose or potential risks. The phone has been sent for forensic analysis, and police are also checking whether a chip may have been installed in the device. Officers noted that Sunita appeared mentally unstable during questioning, often giving responses that didn’t relate to the questions asked.
