German police have arrested two men on suspicion of spying for Russia. The German-Russian nationals are accused of acting as agents for sabotage purposes.
German prosecutors on Thursday said police in the Bavarian city of Bayreuth had arrested two men on suspicion of spying for Russia.
The two are accused, among other things, of acting as agents for sabotage purposes and of preparing explosives, the German Federal Prosecutor’s Office announced in Karlsruhe.
What are the allegations?
Federal police arrested Dieter S. and Alexander J. and, along with Bavarian state police, searched the defendants’ homes and workplaces.
The men were said to have scouted out potential attack targets, including US military bases in Germany.
S., who prosecutors say was in contact with a Russian secret service agent, is also charged with conspiring to cause an explosion and arson.
The accused is said to have been exchanging ideas with the agent since October 2023 about possible sabotage action.
I wish they would arrest people suspected of spying for Russia in the United States, But I just don’t think we’re going to see them walk 218 representatives out of the house.
Is it spying when they do it out in the open?
I don’t see why not, The only reason why it’s done in secret is because there would be consequences if you were caught. But if you’re sure there’s never going to be any consequences, why wouldn’t you just do it in the open anyway?
Yes.
Good. I hope they throw the book at them, this shit is literal treason. Make an example for the other aspiring russian assets.
they should also act against Russia directly now. Scholz should immediately greenlight the use of Taurus against russian forces to send a strong signal to those cunts in Moscow.
