An American citizen named Martin D. has been arrested in Germany on suspicion of passing intelligence data to China, federal prosecutors said. According to the information published by the Reuters agency, Martin D. acquired the data while working for the US military forces stationed in Germany, quoted by BTA.
German privacy laws restrict the disclosure of the suspect's full name, which is why he has only been identified by the first letter of his last name. The prosecutor's statement also stated that Martin D. had shown a willingness to cooperate as an agent of a foreign intelligence agency.
