Pegasus Row: Supreme Court Says Probe Panel Can Submit Report By June 20

In the Pegasus snooping row, the Supreme Court on Friday gave time till June 20 to finish the probe to the court-appointed panel.

The probe committee, headed by former top court judge RV Raveendran, informed the court that 29 mobile devices have been examined apart from interaction with several journalists and experts.

The technical committee is expected to submit its report to the Pegasus oversight panel by May-end, following which the final report will be submitted in the top court by June 20.

The Pegasus software is made by Israel-based NSO Group Technologies. The surveillance controversy broke out last year not just in India but other countries too. At that time, the software maker had said it sells its services to governments only.
