The official website of Fiat India was hacked and defaced by members of the ZCompany Hacking Crew (ZHC) as a form of protest against India.

As in most cases, the attack is related to the controversial regions of Jammu and Kashmir, a source of conflict between India and Pakistan.

“This institutionalized impunity with which the killings of civilians by military and police forces in Jammu and Kashmir continues should be a source of shame for India which propagates to be a democracy!” the hackers wrote on the defaced page.

The cyber battle between Pakistani and Indian hackers has been ongoing for quite some time now and since none of them plans to back off, it will probably continue.

At the time of writing, the Fiat website still displays the defacement page.
