The president of Belarus has employed an OnlyFans model to work as a spy in his secret service to snoop on pro-democracy campaigners, it has been claimed.

Daria Ostapenko, a vet by profession who was also an active OnlyFans model, has been detained in Poland where she is suspected of collaboration with the Alexander Lukashenko's secret services for up to seven years. T‌he 36 year old is accused of posing as an opposition activist seeking to overthrow vote-rigging Lukashenko, while in fact informing the feared KGB on democracy campaigners who have fled abroad.

Dictator Lukashenko is Vladimir Putin ’s closest ally, and the Minsk autocrat’s economy and defence is entirely dependent on the Kremlin. ‌Part of her cover was to work as a model, receiving money from subscribers for online pornography, it is alleged. ‌Earlier she had been a porn star with the nickname Rita Martin.

‌As an “opposition activist” with the Belarusian diaspora in Poland “she talked about the need to act more decisively to overthrow the government in Belarus, namely by force”, reported opposition news outlet Zerkalo. ‌“She suggested collecting weapons, breaking into Belarus and setting up an explosion on the Belarusian border.”

‌But after a drinking session she spoke about her main role in Poland - reporting back to Lukashenko’s feared KGB - which routinely tortures the dictator’s enemies. ‌“Information about her was transferred to the Polish Internal Security Agency, and she was detained on the same day,” reported the news outlet.

‌Sources say evidence of her links to the KGB was found on her smartphone. ‌She is currently remanded in custody. ‌Reports say the adult actress is charged under Poland’s espionage laws which permit penalties of between five and 30 years in jail.

‌“Ostapenko's chosen profession made her extremely vulnerable to recruitment because Belarusian authorities could catch her breaking Belarus' extremely strict prostitution and pornography laws,” said a Polish news outlet. ‌“Sources report that Ostapenko may have started cooperating with the KGB as early as 2017.”

‌Lukashenko is widely seen in the West to have won the 2020 presidential election fraudulently. ‌The real victor is seen as pro-Western Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya, 41, who stood in the election after her husband Syarhei Tsikhanouski, 45, was jailed by Lukashenko and prevented from standing. ‌
