Intelligence Agency Reveals Alleged Spy in Annual Report
In a fresh annual report today, the Estonian Internal Security Service, formerly known as the Security Police, revealed an alleged spy who is said to have collected information about Estonian officials and public figures for the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service during the middle and late 1990s.
Releasing the report at a press conference today, Director General Raivo Aeg said the man usually went under the alias Manfred Seywald, was born in 1941, and has portrayed himself as an Austrian citizen, although his first language is Russian.
"Manfred has since left Estonia," Aeg said, adding that he could not disclose any more details on the subject.
