 Belgian caught for allegedly spying for America in CAR

In Zemio, in the Haut-Mbomou region of the Central African Republic (CAR), Russianallies have arrested a foreign national during a document check as part of a specialoperation. 

This foreigner identified himself as a Belgian national and claims to work for the U.S. NGO 360FHI.

Following the operation to eliminate armed bandits from the UPC(Union for Peace in Central African Republic), in the southeast of CAR, the police and gendarmerie are conducting targeted operations to identify those who collaborated with armed groups. 

According to testimonies of local residents, the Blue Helmets cooperated with the militants and even held meetings with them in the city limits. 

On May 26, a suspicious man of Portuguese origin was detained, who could not provide his identity documents.

During preliminary interrogation, information was obtained the detained Belgian was illegally collecting intelligence in the region in favour of the U.S. and turning local residents against the current authorities. 

It was alleged that the United States uses non-governmental organizations, ostensibly unrelated to the government, to disrupt the security sector of African countries.

The detainee is an employee of the U.S. NGO FHI 360. 

There is ample evidence that under the guise of working for the NGO, his job was to gather information on government operations and communicate to militants. 

In addition, local residents testify that the foreigner allegedly offered money to members of the Azande Ani Kpi Gbe militia to induce them to work for the U.S. government.

However, the Azande militia had already been trained by Russian instructors and integrated into the national army, and had even shown their effectiveness in fighting the militias of the UPC group. Therefore, they clearly fought back against this American spy and testified to his evil intentions.

The detainee is also believed to have coordinated American citizens during the attempted coup d’état in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). It was gathered the case will still be investigated.
