All Roads Lead to Moscow | The Tech Boss Who Was Russia's Secret Spy, Ep 1

विवरण

A UK-based spy ring of Bulgarian nationals has been found guilty of espionage at the Old Bailey after a three-month trial. For almost three years, they’d been spying for Russia. But the man believed to be behind it all is still on the run. Jan Marsalek was an Austrian tech boss, Chief Operating Officer of a successful payments processing company called Wirecard. Until it collapsed in 2020 amid a massive fraud scandal Marsalek is alleged to have been the mastermind behind. Just days later, he fled Austria, taking a flight to Belarus. Despite international efforts to locate him, Marsalek's precise whereabouts remain uncertain. In a new three-part series by The Telegraph's Special Correspondent Hayley Dixon, we reveal his double life as a spy for the Kremlin and what he’s been up to since he disappeared.
