Australia’s spy agency ousted two agents working for the Indian Modi Government after they were caught grooming politicians while also trying to access sensitive airport information.

ASIO Director-General Mike Burgess revealed in 2021 that a “nest of spies” had been expelled from Australia in 2020 after they were caught “early” by the security agency.

Their identity remained unknown until a report by The Washington Post revealed the agents were working for the
“Research and Analysis Wing” of the Indian Modi Government on Monday.

During a threat assessment in 2021, Burgess said:
“they asked a public servant to provide information on security protocols at a major airport.”

“They successfully cultivated and recruited an Australian government security clearance holder who had access to sensitive details of defence technology.”

He said they developed “targeted relationships” with politicians, police, and a foreign embassy.

So - what are the names of the politicians and police and why aren't they on trial too?

It would have been a sensational trial:

2 Indian spies,
many politicians,
many cops

all on trial and it could have been on live TV.
We have been denied a great spectacle of our justice system.

What happened to those politicians and cops?
Are they still working for us?
Did they get full pensions if they were asked to leave?
What kind of deterrent do we have for other treasonous public servants and spies?

We were denied the media story of the century.

Imagine the show trial we could have had?
Cops and politicians in chains peering over the witness box -
breaking down under questions about treason?


The journalist who broke the news would get to tell about it every day on the news reel -
they'd even get their picture in the paper.

It would be Australia's spygate.
