A German businessman was detained on suspicion of selling machine tools to the Russian secret service, the Federal Prosecutor's Office said on Tuesday.
The man was arrested in Leipzig after a suspected "violation of the Foreign Trade Act " for selling dual-use goods to a company linked to Russian intelligence services, the prosecutor's office said on Twitter.
Officials proceeded to search the managing director's home, as well as offices in Berlin and Leipzig connected to the suspect's other businesses.
