German spy provides Bulgaria with top secret Mideast dossier

IRNA

Berlin, Oct 25, IRNA -- A German intelligence officer gave highly 
classified information on the Middle East to Bulgaria, the website of 
the weekly Focus news magazine reported Saturday. 
It quoted German intelligence sources as saying that a 
high-ranking official of the German foreign intelligence service BND, 
identified only as Ingo Sch., gave a secret dossier on the Mideast and
the Balkans to Bulgaria. 
The 64-year-old agent who was arrested by German authorities on 
October 9, led a top secret BND department on the Balkan region. 
The German officer`s contact agent was a female Bulgarian agent 
who had scholarship at the prestigious Berlin-based Alexander von 
Humboldt Foundation. 
The BND assisted in the rebuilding of the Bulgarian intelligence 
agency following the collapse of that country`s communist regime.
