"During the current year-2014 (till December 17), six Pak espionage modules have been neutralised in the country resulting in the arrest of six persons along with information and documents relating to various establishments in the country. Out of these six accused, five are Indian and one is a Sri Lankan national," Minister of State for Home, Haribhai Parathibhai Chaudhary said in a written reply.
