A UK-based spy ring of Bulgarian nationals has been found guilty
of espionage at the Old Bailey after a three-month trial. For
almost three years, they’d been spying for Russia.

But the man believed to be behind it all is still on the run. Jan
Marsalek was an Austrian tech boss, Chief Operating Officer of a
successful payments processing company called Wirecard. Until it
collapsed in 2020 amid a massive fraud scandal Marsalek is
alleged to have been the mastermind behind.

Just days later, he fled Austria, taking a flight to Belarus.
Despite international efforts to locate him, Marsalek's precise
whereabouts remain uncertain. In a new three-part series by The
Telegraph's Special Correspondent Hayley Dixon, we reveal his
double life as a spy for the Kremlin and what he’s been up to
since he disappeared.
