Two arrested in Germany suspected of spying for Syria
German police arrested two men in Berlin Tuesday accused of spying on opponents of the Syrian regime in raids involving some 70 officers, federal prosecutors said.
The suspects were identified only as 47-year-old German-Lebanese citizen Mahmoud El A. and 34-year-old Syrian national Akram O., the federal prosecutor's office said in a statement.
“They are strongly suspected of regularly spying on Syrian opposition figures in Germany for the Syrian intelligence service for several years,” it said.
The prosecutor's office said around 70 federal and state police officers searched their homes and those of another six suspects.
