Russian spy caught trying to infiltrate the Hague
https://www.theguardian.com/law/…"But there are some details suggesting the spy was not obviously Brazilian. At school, the false backstory claims, “my fellow pupils used to joke about my looks and accent”. The document continues: “Even though I looked like a German, they called me ‘gringo’. That is why I did not have many friends.”
It also notes that Ferreira hates fish, “contrary to most other Brazilian people who enjoy all the sea has to offer”, because he disliked the “stench of fish” from a port near a home where he supposedly grew up.
There is other baffling incidental detail, claiming that he had a “real and honest crush” on his school geography teacher; that a garage where he worked had a poster of “a young Verónica Castro ... replaced by one of Pamela Anderson”, and that he regularly visited “the only nightclub that plays trance music” in the capital, accompanied by its address."
Apparently he brought with him a paper shredder. Unable to hook it up he cursed out an electrician there and a cleaning lady and threatened them with "rocket attack from Moscow"
You don't see this in James Bond movies, that's for sure
- I'm curious. Why aren't spies — when busted — detained and subjected to the (in this case) Dutch criminal justice system?Continuity
- Same happened with Anna Chapman & Co, and the group that carried out the poisonings in Salisbury.Continuity
