A âsophisticatedâ UK-based spy ring passed secrets to Russia for nearly three years before they were prosecuted. It was revealed that the ring leader, a man named Orlin Roussev, had exchanged messages with a mysterious man code named âRupert Ticzâ.
The prosecutors revealed that the man was in fact Jan Marsalek, the fugitive ex-Wirecard chief operating officer, who is wanted in connection with a âŹ1.9bn (ÂŁ1.57bn) banking fraud.
For almost three years, he had gathered information on targets across Europe, planning kidnappings, murders and assaults alongside the spy ring.
In the third instalment of The Daily T Investigates: The Tech Boss Who Was Russia's Secret Spy, Hayley Dixon reveals the messages that were sent by Marsalek and uncover what he has been up to since he went on the run since June 2020.

It was one of the UKâs worst modern disasters - and yet seven years on, no one has been held accountable for the Grenfell fire. With the official inquiryâs final report set to be released, people are expecting answers. How did the London tower block catch fire so quickly in June 2017? Why did 72 people die? And who is to blame?
A police investigation is still ongoing, meaning the bereaved and survivors of Grenfell Tower will have to wait until at least 2027 before anyone can face charges. Chief Reporter Rob Mendick has been speaking to Flora and Hisam who were directly affected by the fire, Kimia Zabihyan (Advocate and Co-ordinator of Grenfell Next of Kin), and lawyer Imran Khan to hear what they think about the inquiry and what they want to see from the upcoming report into the tragedy.

From Jimmy Savile to Huw Edwards, the BBC has in recent years been associated with a number of high-profile cases of paedophilia. But there have also been other cases of child abuse linked to the BBC, and now the organisation is facing fresh questions about whether it has done enough to protect children by properly vetting people coming into its offices or working on its behalf.
In this special episode of The Daily T hosted by head of investigations Claire Newell, we reveal a previously untold story of child sexual abuse at the hands of someone working for the organisation and expose how the BBC contracted a convicted paedophile as a chauffeur for 30 years. A warning that some listeners may find some of the reporting upsetting.
