Representational image. Reuters[/caption] India and France have opened investigations after The Australian newspaper published on Wednesday documents about its Scorpene submarines being built in India. “It is not a leak, it is theft,” the source said. “We have not found any DCNS negligence, but we have identified some dishonesty by an individual.” The source said the documents looked to have been stolen in 2011 by a former French employee that had been fired while providing training in India on the use of the submarines. The documents were not classified and at this stage appeared to only focus on the operational elements of the submarines, the source said.
