About this person

Dušan "Duško" Popov was a Serbian intelligence agent, lawyer and businessman who served as a double agent for MI6 during World War II. Feigning to be an asset of the German Abwehr, he passed off disinformation to Germany as part of the British Double-Cross System while occasionally using cover as a diplomat for the Yugoslav government-in-exile in London.
