NCP Leader Supriya Sule's Phone And WhatsApp Hacked, Hackers Demanded $400

Supriya Sule called the issue “very serious” adding, that she has nothing to hide in her phone. She filed a complaint at Yavat police station and spoke to SP who assured her of a probe.

Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) (SP) leader Supriya Sule on Monday said her phone and WhatsApp had been hacked and added that she was being blackmailed by the hackers who were demanding $400. 

Sule said that NCP General Secretary Aditi Nalawade's WhatsApp was also hacked along with her phone.

"The party general secretary Aditi Nalawade's WhatsApp was also hacked. Hackers demanded Rs 10,000 from her. We tried to keep them engaged by agreeing to pay. They had even shared account details of a bank for transferring money,” Sule said.

"I want to request to everyone that anyone's mobile can be hacked. My Mobile was off and then we came to know that someone else was accessing my WhatsApp. I got immediate help from Pune's SP office. The government should think seriously about this, it is a matter of privacy," the NCP leader said in a press conference on Monday.

In a post on 'X' on Sunday, the Baramati MP had requested people not to call or message her.

"My phone and WhatsApp have been hacked. Please do not message or call me. Please note that I am filing a police complaint," Sule said in a post on X.

The NCP (SP) leader called the issue “very serious” adding, that she has nothing to hide in her phone. She filed a complaint at Yavat police station and spoke to the superintendent of police Pankaj Deshmukh who assured her of a probe.

In a later post on Sunday, she said, "Phone and WhatsApp are now working again. Thanks to Pune Rural Police and WhatsApp Support for their quick help. Sorry for any trouble caused while I was unreachable."
