Adelaide Advertiser 13feb05:

ASIO has uncovered a sex spy ring in Canberra after tailing a diplomat and suspected agent from the Israeli Embassy.

Amir Lati, the second secretary at the embassy, was secretly expelled from Australia last month after the Howard Government threatened to declare him persona non grata.

Mr Lati seduced a senior official at the Defence Department who had access to classified material.
[...]
The Australian Secret Intelligence Organisation only discovered Mr Lati was having a sexual relationship with a woman from the Defence Department after he visited New Zealand.ASIO had put the 30-something junior diplomat – and other embassy officials – under surveillance after two suspected Israeli spies were arrested and tried in NZ.

What they discovered has rocked Canberra's intelligence community. The scandal has concerned the intelligence agencies of Australia's closest ally, the US.
[...]

It has caused ructions with US intelligence agencies, which fear their secrets have been compromised again.

Mr Lati had popped up on ASIO's screen after he visited two Israeli spies, Eli Cara and Uriel Kelman, who were arrested in NZ.

The pair had been found guilty of fraudulently trying to buy NZ passports and were sentenced to six months in jail...

Believed to be an agent of Mossad, Israel's spy service, Lati was said to have been seeking military and technology secrets, and intelligence, passed to Australia by the US.

Sydney Daily Telegraph February 14, 2005:

A DIPLOMAT who was due to replace an alleged Mossad spy in Canberra was reportedly photographed nude with under-age girls when on a posting to Brazil five years ago.

Israeli newspaper Haaretz said the country's foreign ministry is now holding off sending the new consul to Australia.

Haaretz said Aryeh Sar was investigated after being photographed naked with Brazilian girls, some of whom were minors.

Sar reportedly returned to Israel to face trial.

He was found not guilty of any wrongdoing but was reprimanded for "inappropriate behaviour".

The criminal case in Brazil remains open. News of Sar's alleged misconduct comes a week after Israeli diplomat Amir Lati was apparently ejected from Australia by ASIO for espionage.

. . . and then the academic skinheads over at National Vanguard have all the details.
