The trial of six Bulgarians accused of spying for Russia continues in the United Kingdom. The head of the "spy cell" Orlin Rusev and Biser Dzhambazov pleaded guilty. Three others - Katrin Ivanova, Vanya Gaberova and Tihomir Ivanchev, have pleaded not guilty, BNR correspondent in London Vesselin Paunov has reported. There is no information about the position of the sixth member of the group - Ivan Stoyanov.
According to evidence presented in court, Rusev worked closely with Austrian national Jan Marsalek, from whom he received instructions and money for the operations carried out. One of these operations was the monitoring and development of a plan to assassinate Bulgarian investigative journalist Hristo Grozev. Among the objects of the group's espionage were journalists, Russian dissidents and a US military base. The women also served as "sexual bait" for espionage purposes. The group used very modern technology and collected information not only on the Island, but also in other places in Europe, it was reported.
