An employee of Poland's Defence Ministry has been detained by the Military Counterintelligence Service over suspicions of collaboration with Russian intelligence, as revealed by news sources at Onet.

The arrest points to serious concerns about security breaches within the Ministry, which has been tight-lipped about the issue.
