A brief synopsis of the key players and cases described in the previous CI Centre podcast about MI5 officer Charles Elwell and how they link to one another. |
|
CI Centre President David Major (ret FBI) discusses the life and recent death of Charles Elwell. Elwell was a MI5 Officer during the Cold War and is known most notably for playing a key role in the uncovering of the Portland spy ring in January 1961, which was run by Konon Molody, a Soviet Agent who was documented as a Canadian citizen and used the name Gordon Lonsdale. The source who provided the lead to this case was a Polish intelligence officer, Michael Goleniewski, who also provided the lead to the penetration of the British Secret Intelligence Service (MI6). This penetration uncovered George Blake, a British intelligence official, who had been the leak for the Soviets and East Germans on the CIA?s plan to dig a quarter-mile long tunnel under East Berlin as part of a massive wiretapping operation. Unbeknownst to the CIA, the Soviets had known about the tunnel along and there has been speculation that the Soviets had only used the cables in the tunnel to send disinformation down the line. This podcast is an analysis of these cases. |
