Description
"Quick" chief editor van Nouhuys incurred suspicion being double agent.: Chief editor of Munich illustrated magazine "Quick" Heinz van Nouhuys(our pict.) has supposedly worked for years for the security police of FGR (Bundesnachrichtendienst BND) as well as the Staatsicherheitsdienst of GDR. These allegations were made by illustrated magazine "Stern" claiming that the accusation could be proven by authentic material. According to these documents Mr. van Nouhuys is said to have received DM 200 000 within the past six years for 123 meetings in East Berlin and for sending about 100 reports on security matters. Sofar the accused rejected by an affidavit, announcing also that he would take all legal measures against the allegations. The supposedly double agent was also involved in the political bribery case just recently (former-member of Christian Democratic Party Julius Steiner claimed to have received DM 50 000 for abstaining in the vote against Chancellor Brandt) Quick editors, among them van Nouhuys made headlines then, because they shielded Julius Steiner against the public before being questioned in this matter by a investigation committee.
