The Romanian Information Service (State Security) published on its website a message about preventing sabotage in the country, which is believed to have been organized by Russia.
“A sabotage organized by the Russian Federation on the territory of Romania has been thwarted“, the text says. In cooperation with partner European intelligence agencies, it was possible “to quickly locate the Colombian citizen Luis Alfonso Murillo Dios, who arrived in Romania at the end of July 2024. for the purpose of committing sabotage“, report notes.
The citizen of the South American country was detained on July 30, 2024, when he “was thoroughly investigating the area near a recycling warehouse located near a number of sites that could be equated to critical infrastructure (oil wells, gas pipelines or telecommunications antennas)“.
The Colombian's case has been brought to court on charges of crimes against national security.
