Damn .. thats a higher up position .
 
He is OS rank, and one of more eminent speakers in seminars, there are many videos in public domain, like the below where he is showing MRSAM firing. I have fair few videos bookmarked. Hopefully this is just misunderstanding, academic people can be easily trapped.

We don't know the details, and it is very easy to obtain an indian sim & create a fake profile. I do not think a person of his experience would be that careless.
There are some programs i am adding below, watch & see if you really think someone of his stature can intentionally do it. Especially the 3rd episode with his family.

Anyone remember the case of that Brahmos scientist who had own youngscientist award . Whose computer was hacked somehow and some infos had got leaked . I used to be in facebook in those days . His profile in fb was enough to get all about his family members and places where he visited . I remember people were trolling even his family members in facebook after things got highlighted in media .

Scientists are supposed to be intelligent people.. What's with Honey trapping.

Dhruv loss hadn't left the mind..

This honey-trapping of our scientists and defence personal is becoming a huge issue. Something needs to be done by GOI to stop it. Maybe some sort of special training or protocol or surveillance, but it needs to stop. Period.
