Phone numbers of 2 Apex Court officers were among alleged candidates for surveillance through Pegasus spyware, news portal the news agency reported on Wednesday.
In addition, a number that was earlier registered in the name of Justice Arun Mishra, who has retired, was also added to the list in 2019, said the report. Besides, there were names of some Advocates involved in high-profile cases, it added. The numbers of N K Gandhi and T I Rajput, who were in the writ section of the Supreme Court registry, were alleged to have been on the list.
