That's a lot of double-double agent stuff - kudos to you for writing such a complicated interaction in your story.

I don't think you need any psychology-related words, honestly. What I would use is just a quick dialogue scene to describe the basic symptoms of what Group C believes is happening. Perhaps a doctor or some other authoritative figure could quickly posit this theory to other important members of Group C, getting the message across to the readers? Other members can then agree with the idea.

That way, you can describe Stockholm Syndrome without either using the existing term or creating a new term of your own, and move on with your actual story without getting tied up in medical specifics.
