ASHDOWN 'WAS MI6 AGENT'
Birmingham Post - September 2, 2005, Friday
Lord Paddy Ashdown, currently the top international administrator in Bosnia, was
in the 1970s an agent for the British MI6 secret service, Sarajevo daily
newspapers have reported.
According to the Oslobodjenje and Dnevni Avaz newspapers, his name was published
on the internet as part of a list of 311 MI6 agents, stating the British
diplomat was based in Geneva, Switzerland, in 1974.
Lord Ashdown was made a peer in 2001. The former soldier had led the Liberal
Democrats for more than ten years.
He left the Royal Marines in 1972 and joined the Foreign Office. He was posted
to the British Mission to the United Nations in Geneva where he was responsible
for Britain's relations with a number of United Nations organisations.
Lord Ashdown's office declined to comment. The Foreign Office refused to confirm
or deny if he had worked as an agent but it condemned the publication of the
names
