Knowing that the other party is a spy, he leaked the information and was sentenced to 10 years in prison

The reporter learned from the Ministry of National Security that for a long time, overseas espionage and intelligence agencies have regarded the staff of our party and government organs, enterprises and institutions as key targets for recruiting and infiltrating them. Recently, the national security agency uncovered a spy case. The person involved, An, was once regarded as the "pride of heaven" by the public, but was ultimately imprisoned for failing to resist the temptation of foreign spy intelligence agencies.

Lost original intention

The fall of top students

An has had excellent academic performance since childhood and is considered a "child of others" in his population. After graduating from a prestigious university, he was successfully admitted to an important position in a certain government agency. After joining, An worked diligently and achieved outstanding results, earning the trust of his leaders and being entrusted with more important responsibilities. But as his power grew, An felt a bit "floating". Just as An's vanity was growing, a "confidant" quietly appeared beside him, showing meticulous care to An as a friend.

At first, the 'confidant' only intentionally or unintentionally inquired about the situation at work and showed a great curiosity about the field that An was responsible for. The overly attentive behavior of this' confidant 'once made An suspicious, but under the continuous emotional attack and temptation of interests from the other party, the vain An gradually lost his bottom line. Faced with repeated banquets, gifts, and care, An felt increasingly indebted to the "confidant". Faced with increasingly excessive requests for information consultation from the "confidant", An, out of face and friendship, illegally disclosed relevant information to them, gradually falling into the trap carefully woven by the "confidant".

The deeper it sinks, the deeper it gets

The dust of awe and reverence

As An fell deeper and deeper, the 'confidant' gradually revealed his fangs, changed his gentle image, and openly forced An to collect more confidential information for him. At this point, An, who had received confidentiality education from the unit, had confirmed that the "confidant" was a member of the overseas spy intelligence agency. Although An was well aware that his actions violated the law, the intimidation, coercion, and financial incentives from overseas spy intelligence agencies made him deeply involved and unable to extricate himself. An hesitated whether to surrender, but the thought that all his efforts and honors would be in vain after surrendering made him decide to hide the situation from the organization due to his avoidance and luck mentality. The overseas spy intelligence agency has seized on An's psychology and further coerced him to collect information with higher confidentiality levels.

During a major event, An took advantage of his position and leaked an important confidential matter, seriously damaging national interests. In the end, An was sentenced to ten years in prison for espionage according to the law. After arriving at the case, this former 'pride of heaven' cried several times and regretted deeply.
