Hackers Threaten KP Govt & RAW with 500 Bitcoin Demand

Hackers have issued a chilling warning on the dark web, threatening to leak sensitive data from Pakistan’s Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) government and India’s intelligence agency RAW. They demand 500 Bitcoins, warning that failure to comply will result in the release of classified files within 24 hours.

This alarming development comes at a time of heightened tensions between Pakistan and India, adding more pressure to fragile regional ties. The hackers claim access to confidential intelligence documents but have not revealed specific details. Cybersecurity experts warn that if such files are leaked, it could compromise national security, expose informants, and trigger political instability in South Asia.

The KP government and RAW have not yet issued any official response, leaving room for speculation on whether negotiations are happening privately. Analysts say the deadline reflects the hackers’ confidence and organized structure, raising fears of a major digital security breach in the region.

The situation underscores the rising threat of cybercrime in South Asia, where weak government systems have become easy targets for hackers seeking money and influence.

With the countdown ticking, the world is watching whether the hackers will follow through or if a backdoor deal will prevent one of the most serious cyber breaches in recent regional history.
