A senior Welsh journalist has spoken of his shock as his Cardiff home was raided by counterterrorism police on the afternoon of Wednesday, 4 March. The search was a part of the police probe into allegations that the journalist is among individuals who have been spying for China.
Nation.Cymru news website's Associate Editor Martin Shipton told BBC Wales he was perplexed about his involvement in the case, and confirmed the police had entered his house in Cardiff forcibly after he was served with a search warrant under the National Security Act 2023. Shipton, however, was not arrested following the raid.
