(BBC) A former British soldier accused of spying has claimed he made up much of the information he sent to the Iranians.
Daniel Khalife, 23, is on trial at Woolwich Crown Court on charges of collecting sensitive military information for Iran as well as allegedly escaping from Wandsworth Prison last year.
The jury also heard from Soldier A, who worked in intelligence, and said information gathered by the ex-soldier could have proved a “beneficial start point to a hostile adversary.”
Mr Khalife denies all the charges.
The jury in his trial heard audio messages in which an Iranian man appears to thank him for his work over four years, and seems to be helping Mr Khalife to get an Iranian passport.
