The Trade Representation of Russia in Japan, in Tokyo’s Minato Ward, in June (Shingo Tsuru) A 70-year-old man is thought to be the latest Japanese targeted by Russian intelligence agents for sensitive information in exchange for cash and other gifts, along with being wined and dined. Kanagawa prefectural police officials believe the 42-year-old Russian who obtained sensitive information from the man is a spy. The Russian man who worked for his country’s trade representation in Japan was recently referred to prosecutors on suspicion of committing computer fraud. His alleged Japanese collaborator was also arrested on the same suspicion. The Japanese man, who has since been released without indictment, has received a total of 10 million yen ($90,000) or so in cash from Russians and has also been wined and dined by them over the course of three decades or so, the officials said.
