Kerala Cyber Warriors, a self-proclaimed group of Indian hackers on Monday claimed that they hacked into 50 Pakistan websites.
All the 50 websites now say “Take a stand against evil, corruption and terrorism, for we belong to India. A nation of pride and we will thus say, Hindu, Muslim, Sikh, Christian, hum sab bhai bhai hain, Happy Independence Day,” on their homepage, with Vande mataram playing in the background.
Senior officials at Kerala Hitech cell of cyber crime police station said that though the activities of the hacker group has been reported by the media in the past, the cyber cell has not carried out any investigation as no formal complaint has ever been filed against them.
In March this year, the same group had hacked 20 Bangladeshi websites in a bid to get even with a photoshopped image of Bangladesh bowler Taskin Ahmed carrying the severed head of MS Dhoni.
Ahead of Asia cup finals between India and Bangladesh, the photograph posted by a Bangladeshi fan had raked a huge controversy.
The post also lists down all the 50 websites the group hacked on Monday. Among the notable websites are http://actmacollege.edu.pk/indipendence.php and http://kpptchangu.gov.pk/download/independence.php.
