Ex-CIA analyst accused of working for South Korean intelligence service
==========
Sue Mi Terry, a former CIA analyst and senior fellow for Korea studies at the Council on Foreign Relations, has been indicted on criminal charges of acting as an agent of South Korea. She was charged with failing to register as a foreign agent and conspiring to violate the Foreign Agents Registration Act. Terry is accused of meeting with handlers from South Korea's National Intelligence Service (NIS), providing them with information and access to U.S. government officials. She allegedly received luxury gifts and concealed payments made to a think tank. Terry's lawyer denies the allegations and states that she will fight the charges. The Council on Foreign Relations has placed Terry on unpaid administrative leave and will cooperate with any investigation. Terry has a history of working in various government and think tank positions related to Korea and Asia. The indictment also implicates the Wilson Center and the South Korean Embassy in the alleged activities. The South Korean Embassy and Max Boot, a columnist for The Washington Post and Terry's husband, have not commented on the charges.
