PALMERSTON NORTH, New Zealand: A military court found a New Zealand soldier guilty of attempted espionage for a foreign power on Monday – the first spying conviction in the country’s history. The soldier was caught offering to pass military base maps and photographs to an undercover officer posing as an agent for the third country, the court-martial heard. The man’s name, the country he attempted to spy for and the name of the undercover officer who caught him were all suppressed by the court.

The soldier had been a person of interest since the Christchurch mosque attack and had a live-streamed video of the massacre.
