Prosecutors stated that Khalife covertly gathered detailed information about British soldiers, including those in special forces, using internal Army systems to document their identities.
Mark Heywood KC explained that the details Khalife extracted were sensitive, particularly involving special forces, which operate under strict security protocols to protect their members.
The court heard Khalife allegedly received cash payments from Iranian intelligence in exchange for sensitive military information, following his unauthorized research into soldier identities.
During the trial, it was revealed that Khalife attempted to escape from Wandsworth Prison shortly after his arrest, indicating a calculated approach to avoid prosecution.
