Italian Scientist Denies Passing Facts to Soviet Agent
Dr Giuseppe Martelli, Euratom worker seconded to the British Atomic Energy Authority, denied charges under the Official Secrets Act. He testified at Old Bailey that a Soviet official warned traitors would be liquidated, and said he never sent or received coded messages or intended to pass information. His defense accuses the Karpekov circle of blackmail involving his wife and children.
