Suspected Russian spy worked on BBC series about ties with Moscow | | A suspected Russian spy was employed as a translator and fixer for a major BBC series about
Russia. Ekaterina Zatuliveter, 24, travelled to Moscow to arrange interviews
with senior Russian politicians for a four-part series, which will be broadcast
next year on BBC 2, The Telegraph reports. Zatuliveter, a parliamentary researcher
for Mike Hancock, the senior Liberal Democrat MP, joined the production team for
three weeks in April during the run up to the General Election. Four months later
MI5 officers interviewed her at Gatwick Airport , and now she is fighting a deportation
order after the intelligence services decided she posed a threat to national security.
Hancock, however, denies that Zatuliveter is a Moscow sleeper agent. The program
will focus on Vladimir Putin's Russia , and feature many of Russia 's most senior
politicians.
