ONE of the world’s most wanted men who now works as a Russian spy has been spotted for the first time with a hair transplant and a new lover.
Jan Marsalek, a fugitive tech boss who has been on the run from Interpol for five years, was pictured enjoying a casual day out with his partner in Moscow.

The firm head-turned spy ran a UK-based spy ring for Bulgarian operatives – but new details around his life have now been reported by The Insider and Der Spiegel.
In bombshell new images, Marsalek can be seen strolling hand in hand with his Russian red-headed lover and fellow Vladimir Putin agent Tatiana Spiridonova, 41.
His earlier lover, who recruited him, was another agent – 41-year-old model Natalia Zlobina, also known as the “naked spy”.
Austrian-born Marsalek went on the run in June 2020, when his German tech company Wirecard collapsed with £1.6billion missing from the coffers.
The Putin agent is now wanted for fraud and is being investigated for espionage in several European countries.
Still at large, his daily life in Russia has now been secretly documented and unveiled.
The report details Marsalek walking out of a three-storey house in Stremyanny Lane, Moscow, holding his partner’s hand.
He is said to use multiple aliases and have at least eight different passports.
One of the fake names he uses is Alexander Nelidov, born February 22, 1978 in Riga.
The new report also sheds light on how the Putin spy has travelled to occupied parts of Ukraine several times to carry out “combat missions”.
It comes just four months after his UK-based spy ring was jailed for a total of over 50 years.
Marsalek had exchanged thousands of messages with Orlin Roussev – an operative who was leading the Bulgarian agents from a guest house in Great Yarmouth.
Metropolitan Police recovered the chats and revealed a series of chilling plots to kidnap and kill critics of Russian tyrant Putin.
Christo Grozev and Roman Dobrokhotov, the journalists behind the latest Insider report, were two of the spy ring’s main targets.
While Marsalek got away, beautician Vanya Gaberova, 30, decorator Tihomir Ivanchev, 39, and lab technician Katrin Ivanova, 33, were all convicted of conspiring to spy for Russia.
While working undercover, Marsalek was involved in “industrial” espionage of Putin’s political enemies.
He also worked with Russian private armies and was involved in supplying drones to Putin’s forces on the frontlines with Ukraine.
Carefully balancing his double life, he was a tech boss by day and Kremlin spy by night – a role which he played for at least a decade.

He had access to a wide network of spies and police in the UK, the US, Germany, Austria, Israel, Italy and Switzerland.
He later fled Germany for Moscow as soon as authorities shed light on Wirecard’s suspicious fraud.
Messages he shared with Roussev revealed that while on the run from Interpol in Russia, Marsalek has been partying with the mafia, spies and naked women.
He has also undergone plastic surgery to alter his appearance – including a hair transplant.
Marsalek told the spy ringleader that he had even been learning Russian to fit in.
Spiridonova, who was seen holding hands with Marsalek, allegedly travelled to Europe to get laptops collected by Roussev’s agrents.

Marsalek has also taken multiple trips to Russian-occupied Crimea.
Phone data shows he has been near the frontline multiple times, and even visited Russian-occupied Mariupol as part of an army sabotage unit.
The spymaster has also travelled back and forth to Dubai since 2020, where he has reportedly been involved with money laundering and trading blood diamonds.
His former lover Zlobina is an Uzbekistani actress and ex-erotic model.
She gained recognition for her role in the 1996 American-Russian B-movie Red Lips 2: Bloodlust – in which she played a Russian spy who assassinated opponents using nerve gas.
She facilitated connections between the ex-tech boss and Russian businessmen, and reportedly recruited Marsalek on a yacht.
