Espionage affair
BVT agent “Aigistos” and the oligarch
What sounds like the script for a secret service thriller is contained in an explosive judicial file: BVT agent Egisto Ott was supposed to retrieve the runaway wife of Putin's friend Rotenberg.
The investigation file of the special commission "Fama" and the Vienna public prosecutor's office, which has now grown to thousands of pages, reveals exciting details.
Arkady Romanovich Rotenberg, a close Putin confidant, also features prominently. The real story behind this could be taken from a cheap script for an agent thriller. In the course of the separation or divorce, the oligarch, who is on the sanctions list due to the war in Ukraine - his assets are estimated at four billion US dollars - "ran away" with his wife Natalia.
Wife spied on by Russian billionaire
This is where Egisto Ott, alias "Aigistos", the now ousted constitutional protector, comes into play with his good contacts in Russia. The ex-chief inspector and police attaché, who was arrested on Saturday in his Tuscan-style villa in Carinthia, is said to have allegedly "reconnoitred" Natalia using intelligence services and devised a perfidious criminal plan to "retrieve" her. With drugs planted in her car, Ms. Rotenberg was to have been arrested and then deported. Of course, this never happened.
Hundreds of short messages are recorded
Meanwhile, the arrest of the ex-spy, who is under constant interrogation, is making waves among the parties. Among other things, it is about treacherous cell phone chats with a former blue grandee. Hundreds of short messages between the suspect and the politician during the BVT-U committee are recorded in the file on the secret service thriller.
In addition to photos - from non-public questioning - of committee witnesses and derogatory comments ("No mercy" or "You're clever, he looks like that"), they also suggest that tax money from the party coffers may have been used for information. The presumption of innocence applies.
