Re SST story on police spy in activist groups

Personal statement from Rochelle Rees, ex-partner of Rob Gilchrist - the spy, and person who uncovered the story.

"I was devastated to learn that the person I was in a relationship with, and who I thought I could trust, was passing on personal information about me, my friends, and groups I had worked with to the counter-terrorism police.

"I have been involved in animal rights campaigning for the past 8 years - since I was 13, and that is how I met Rob Gilchrist.

"I am disgusted at the police, both for their extreme level of intrusion into my life, and for the way that they have used Rob and had him live a lie for the past 10 years."
