and I suddenly realised that if he'd been a desk officer in intelligence during all those years, he probably knew exactly who ! was, which turned out to be the case. But I waited until the next week's article. The next article came out, specifically named IUEF as being a prime target of South African intelligence, at which stage I realised I was in some trouble. I put my wife in a health farm in London...near London, just to keep her safe, and I went to have a meeting in Zurich with somebody who would...from South African intelligence who would tell me what was going on and what to do. My...the recognition procedures I had for such a meeting weren't required because when I arrived at the meeting, it washimself who was there.said the only way that we could salvage something from this situation would be to recruit. So I had calledcame to a meeting and I said to him at the meeting, I think it was at the Hotel Zurich. I said: ", your worst fears are true. I am a South African agent."

So when he wasn't keen, and even pressing me for those documents, I really started worrying. Then I said to him: "Look, I'm here, I've got the documents, I'm not coming in the office, I'm busy filling my car with petrol, I'm across the road at the petrol station."
