Ion Șerb
Ion Șerb, also Ioan Șerb was a general of the Socialist Republic of Romania accused of the espionage for the Soviet Union.
A declassified CIA document states the following. Romanian counter-intelligence monitored several high-rank officers suspecting them in sympathies for the Soviet Union. In 1971 unauthorized documents were found during the search of the house of Ion Șerb, and in subsequent interrogations he confessed he was recruited by the Soviet military attache to Romania, Aleksandr Fyodorovich Musatov. In order to avoid confrontation with the Soviet Union, Șerb was not prosecuted, but demoted to the rank of private.
