Lars Findsen
Lars Findsen is a former chief of the Danish Defence Intelligence Service (FE), who gained media attention due to a legal dispute concerning the unauthorized disclosure of his private information, including details about his sex life. After being suspended in 2020 amid criticism from oversight bodies, he was arrested in December 2021 for leaking sensitive information during a high-profile investigation. Following a series of legal battles, he has sought compensation for the violations of his privacy, with recent court rulings favoring his claims.
