Keeping up with their cyber war, a Pakistani based hacker going with the handle of rOOX from Team MadLeets has hacked and defaced the server of Indian Ministry of Railway, which includes around 47 domains.

The hacker left a deface page along with a message on all hacked websites which was expressed in following words:

Hacked By r00x you GoT 0wn3d By rOOX . Just a Security reminder :)  Contact: r00x@ymail.com We are TeaM MADLEETS.
