Our Jan in Moscow: The secret Russian life of Europe's most notorious fugitive-turned-spy
Ever since the summer of 2020, when German payments giant Wirecard collapsed after failing to account for EUR1.9 billion in missing assets, its former COO Jan Marsalek has been a wanted man. The Insider previously traced Marsalek to Russia, where the Austrian national enjoys a colorful life under the protection of the Kremlin's security services. After making minor alterations to his appearance via cosmetic surgery, Marsalek freely walks around central Moscow accompanied by his new girlfriend, an FSB employee. Initially recruited by the GRU, Marsalek has recently been cooperating extensively with the FSB, making frequent appearances at the Lubyanka. In addition, Marsalek regularly travels to the occupied territories of Ukraine to carry out "combat missions" - accompanied by soldiers of the Russian special forces.

Scientists may have spotted 'wind' blowing from the Milky Way's supermassive black hole.
Most supermassive black holes don't just swallow up matter, they eject it, sometimes in spectacular jets of super heated plasma. Sagittarius A* at the center of our galaxy has seemed oddly quiet, though. But scientists believe they've finally found evidence this plasma wind, in the form of a cone-shaped gap in the gas surrounding the black hole. It's not quite as dramatic as Centaurus A, but it has it's own galactic charm.[Image: https://platform.theverge.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2025/10/Screenshot-2025-10-11-at-1.10.58%E2%80%AFPM.png?quality=90&strip=all]
