The espionage trial involving a former employee of Maximilian Krah, a notable figure from the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party, has commenced at the Higher Regional Court in Dresden. The accused, Jian G., is facing serious charges for allegedly working with the Chinese intelligence service since 2002. It is claimed that he gathered sensitive information while serving as Krah's assistant in the European Parliament, including over 500 confidential documents.
An alleged accomplice, Jaqi X., is also implicated for purportedly passing on data related to flights, cargo, and passengers. This case not only raises concerns about national security but also poses challenges for the AfD leadership.
The trial is expected to unfold until the end of September, shedding light on the intricate connections between political roles and espionage activities.
