Marian Zacharski
Marian Zacharski (born 1951 in
Gdynia,
Poland; raised in nearby
Sopot), is a former Polish intelligence officer, arrested in 1981 and convicted of espionage against the
United States. After four years in prison, he was exchanged for American agents on Berlin's famous
Glienicke Bridge. Arguably, he was one of the most famous officers of the Polish intelligence service. In 1996, prosecutors in
Warsaw charged him with ''flagrant mismanagement'' at the
Pewex company, and
Gorzów Wielkopolski police want to question him about illegal car trading.
