A Russian working as a parliamentary aide to a British MP has been taken into custody to face deportation proceedings amid claims she is a spy. According to the Sunday Times, Katia Zatuliveter, 24, was arrested on the orders of MI5 over espionage claims. She has been working for Lib Dem MP Mike Hancock, who said she had done nothing wrong and would appeal. The Home Office said it did not routinely comment on individual cases, nor would it confirm deportation moves. But a security source is said to have told the Sunday Times that Ms Zatuliveter's presence was not "conducive to national security", and the intention was to "show her the door".
