Cyprus Arrests Man in Connection With U.S. Spy Case - BusinessWeek: "Cyprus police arrested a Canadian man on an international arrest warrant in connection with U.S. espionage and money-laundering charges involving a Russian spy ring.
A man identified by police as Robert Christopher Metsos was arrested at the Larnaca International Airport, a spokesman for the Larnaca police department, who declined to be identified, said today. Metsos surrendered his travel documents and was released on bail of 20,000 euros ($24,000).
U.S. authorities yesterday arrested 10 people for allegedly spying for the Russian Federation in the U.S., the Justice Department said in an e-mailed statement. The Federal Bureau of Investigation yesterday said Christopher R. Metsos, a purported Canadian citizen, was an agent of the Russian espionage agency and traveled to the U.S. to pay others in the alleged spy ring."
