October 23, 2007 (BERLIN) — German police have arrested a Sudanese man suspected of spying on Sudanese opposition groups in Germany for Khartoum’s intelligence service, the federal prosecutor’s office said on Tuesday.

The 39-year-old, identified as Acuil A., was arrested on Saturday in Berlin and is thought to have been spying on the groups since at least July 2005, the office said.

Investigations are continuing and no further information can be provided at this time, it added.
