Two Indian hacking groups, Indian Black Hat Hackers (IBH) and Kerala Cyber Warriors (KCW), hacked into multiple Pakistani websites to salute the martyred Lt. Col. Niranjan and his two-year-old daughter, Vismaya.

<p> We hacked some Pakistan websites and domains as a tribute to the bravehearts who were killed in the Pathankot attack on Sunday, and we have dedicated it to Lt Col Niranjan Kumar’s little daughter Vismaya.</p>

<p>It just took a day for us to hack all these 125 sites with the background song “Oru Yathramozhiyode from Mohanlal’s Kurukshetra movie. We have access to many Pakistan servers, so the defacing was easy.</p>

The hackers haven’t taken down the pages yet, as they claim it is not a cyber war but a warning to Pakistan.

<p>We haven’t deleted the contents of the websites, but have just uploaded our message on their domains, as the intention is to give Pakistan a warning. </p>

IBH, initially named Indian Cyber Devils, started in 2011 and were first noticed when they conducted similar hacks to pay tribute to the victims of the 2008 Mumbai terror attack.
