LISTEN:British soldier Daniel Khalife carried out a ‘hapless’ one-man spying mission that more resembled Scooby Doo than James Bond , his lawyer said today.
His ‘mission’ saw him collecting cash from Iranian agents in a dog poo bag, after passing them fake secret documents, riddled with typos, he had written on his laptop. ‘He thought he had a good idea, an idea that would fix everything and all that has achieved is bringing him into the dock of the crown court, a cell in a high-security prison, the hatred of some, the ridicules of many others and the loss of a career that meant the whole world to him,’ Mr Hussain said.
‘But alongside all that was happening, all the moments that might have made you cringe, there were moments you might think that showed real ingenuity. He showed he was someone who could persevere, he showed he was someone who was willing to serve.’ The prosecution allege that, in addition to fake documents, Khalife passed classified military documents to the Iranians as well as a list of soldiers from elite units such as the SAS.
Mr Heywood said: ‘The safety and security of the UK is dealt with by hundreds if not thousands of properly employed people who know what they are doing and have been formally recruited, vetted and so on.
