Zoran Verushevski was the third director of the Administration for Security and Counterintelligence (UBK), the domestic counter-intelligence and security agency of the Republic of Macedonia.
He was arrested in January 2015, and he is still under arrest by Macedonian authorities[1] under suspicion of two crimes: espionage and assisting in violence towards representatives of the highest state organs.[2] Opposition leader Zoran Zaev was also charged, on January 31, with "conspiring with a foreign intelligence service to topple the government"[3] and foreign diplomats are also allegedly involved in the alleged coup d'état.[4]
