According to Polish news outlet Onet.pl, which was the first to report on the detention by Polish security services of a long-time employee of the Ministry of National Defence, the case concerns a 60-year-old man.
The suspect is said to have worked at the ministry for more than 30 years, dating back to the 1990s.
His role was within the Department of Strategy and Defence Planning.
