300 foreign agents believed to be in Poland

11 Mar, 2011

Poland's leading intelligence agency believes there are about 300 foreign spies working in the country. The Internal Security Agency gave the figure Thursday amid efforts to enact a law that would make any espionage illegal in Poland. In a separate report the agency said Poland expelled a Pakistani from the country in April 2010 for trying to conduct logistical work for a terrorist group.
The news agency PAP quoted the head of the security agency, Krzysztof Bondaryk, as saying that the man was suspected of ties to the Lashkar-e-Toiba, which is believed to be behind the 2008 terrorist attacks in Mumbai, India.
