A Russian dissident who was the target of a proxy spy ring dubbed the “Minions” has said the group “wanted to kill me and were following me”, adding he only found out he was a target after reading his name in the news.
Bulgarians Katrin Ivanova, 33, Vanya Gaberova, 30, and Tihomir Ivanov Ivanchev, 39, were found guilty at the Old Bailey last week of spying on an “industrial scale”, putting lives and national security at risk.
