APT31: the Chinese hacking group behind global cyberespionage campaign
Quick Glance: APT31: The Chinese Hacking Group Behind Global Cyberespionage Campaign
  • The United States and Britain took legal action and imposed sanctions on a company and individuals associated with a Chinese state-backed hacking group called APT31, allegedly involved in a comprehensive cyber espionage campaign.

  • APT31, also known as Zirconium, is purportedly led by China's Ministry of State Security and has targeted millions of people over more than a decade, primarily in the U.S. and Britain, including officials, lawmakers, activists, academics, journalists, and companies such as defense contractors and a U.S. smartphone manufacturer.

  • The group is linked to China's Ministry of State Security in the province of Hubei and is accused of suppressing critics of Beijing, compromising government institutions, and stealing trade secrets.

  • The U.S. Treasury Department and the British government have taken measures against the company Wuhan XRZ and seven Chinese individuals, including Ni Gaobin and Zhao Guangzong, who were allegedly involved in the activities of APT31.

Why Bombay High Court acquitted Saibaba, again
Quick Glance: GN Saibaba Acquitted: Case Details and Verdict
  • Former Delhi University professor G N Saibaba and other accused were acquitted by the Bombay High Court in a case involving alleged Maoist connections. The appeals by the accused were successful due to lack of convincing evidence.

  • The convictions in 2017 were overturned as the courts found that the required sanction under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act was missing. The accused were charged with being members of the banned Communist Party of India (Maoist).

  • Another court in October 2022 found the entire prosecution to be invalid due to lack of legal basis. Insufficient evidence and violation of legal procedures led to a "failure of justice" in the trial court's judgment against the accused.

  • Following the overturning of the Bombay High Court verdict in October 2022, the case was remanded to a different court. The decision was based on insufficient evidence and an invalid sanction under the UAPA Act, resulting in the acquittal of the accused.
