Reuters. 3 October 2002. Iraq arms experts probably spied - Swede inspector. STOCKHOLM -- Some United Nations inspectors looking for weapons of mass destruction in Iraq in the 1990s probably spied on behalf of their governments, a Swede who worked as an inspector said on Thursday. "There were episodes you could sense were strange. One team member made too many copies of documents. Then there were those who went to their embassies at night although they were not really allowed to do so," Ake Sellstrom told Swedish public service SVT television news. Sellstrom said information obtained by means of electronic surveillance of Iraqi security forces' communications had clearly fallen into wrong hands -- such as the U.S. and Israeli military -- during his time with UNSCOM. Some targets checked out by the weapons inspectors were bombed by the United States and its allies just a week later, Sellstrom said. Sellstrom was employed by the U.N. weapons inspection organisation UNSCOM led by American Scott Ritter, whom Baghdad repeatedly accused of spying. The inspectors were forced to leave Iraq in December 1998. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
