Fugitive Wirecard Exec's Chat with Russian Spies: Nuclear Weapon Talk, Arms Deals, and Blood Diamonds
- ~2 Min read
Allegedly, Jan Marsalek supplied nuclear weapons to Russian intelligence agents. - Russian operative Jan Marsalek allegedly proposed the sale of nuclear weapons to Russian spies.
In a shocking revelation, British court documents have suggested that disgraced Wirecard executive, Jan Marsalek, discussed illicit arms deals, supplying drones for the Ukraine war, trading blood diamonds, and even nuclear weapons with a Russian spy ring. Orlin Roussev, the leader of this spy ring operating in the UK, and his associate Biser Dzhambazov allegedly exchanged messages with Marsalek about these topics.
When Roussev mentioned that weapons could be ordered in connection with wheat deliveries to Cameroon, Marsalek reportedly replied, "We can organize almost anything they need, even nuclear weapons if they pay." Though Marsalek is not the former CEO but the ex-Chief Operating Officer of Wirecard, this statement has added fuel to the fire in the ongoing investigation against him.
Six Bulgarians are currently facing up to 14 years in prison for spying for Russia. They are accused of being hired by Marsalek to spy on Ukrainian soldiers training in Germany. Roussev and Dzhambazov had pleaded guilty to these charges last year. Russian authorities have remained silent on this matter.
In the presented court documents by the prosecution, Marsalek and Roussev were frequently found discussing the Russian military intelligence GRU and other security services. Marsalek was said to have met with "GRU people" and was promised to be introduced to a "drone procurement guru" to discuss requirements. Roussev heaped praise on SpaceX and Tesla CEO Elon Musk's Starlink satellite system, asserting that "everything is allowed there from Russia and Iran." Marsalek responded enthusiastically, "Musk is super cool."
Since the 2020 collapse of Wirecard in a massive fraud scandal, Marsalek has been evading authorities, with his whereabouts unknown. Munich prosecutors are investigating him for fraud, and an international arrest warrant has been issued. His spying for Russia allegations have added more complications to his case.
Although Marsalek has not been charged with the nuclear weapon claim specifically, his involvement in other espionage activities has come under scrutiny. He is implicated in the case of a group of Bulgarians accused of spying for Russia in the UK.
