German intelligence employee arrested on suspicion of spying for US on Bundestag NSA committee

A member of Germany’s foreign intelligence agency has been detained for possibly spying for the US. The 31-year-old is suspected of giving a US spy agency information about a parliamentary inquiry of NSA activities.

German media said on Friday that an employee of the country's foreign intelligence agency (BND) was being held in police custody under the suspicion of espionage. The information was reported by public broadcasters NDR, WDR and the news daily Süddeutsche Zeitung.

According to initial reports, authorities apprehended a 31-year-old member of the BND on Wednesday.

Germany's Federal Prosecutor confirmed the following day that he had been arrested on the "strong suspicion" of spying activities.

"Citizenfour" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XiGwAvd5mvM) is a worth watching documentary about Edward Snowden, whistleblower and winner of "Alternative Nobel Prize" (Right Livelihood Award | http://www.rightlivelihood.org) 2014.

He received the award "for his courage and skill in revealing the unprecedented extent of state surveillance violating basic democratic processes and constitutional rights”.

Snowden changed the whole world. Now we know, that Orwell's "1984" became reality on a digital level.
