The authorities in Belgium said on Saturday that a Canadian intern at the North Atlantic Treaty Organization’s military headquarters had been arrested on suspicion of spying for another country.

比利时当局周六表示，，一名在北大西洋公约组织军事总部实习的加拿大籍实习生因涉嫌为他国从事间谍活动而被捕。

The Belgian Federal Prosecutor’s Office said the woman was “of Chinese origin” and was arrested on Friday. “She is suspected of spying on behalf of a third country and of being a member of a criminal organization,” it said in a statement, which did not identify the country or the criminal organization.

比利时联邦检察官办公室表示，该名女子为“华裔”，于周五被捕。该办公室在声明中称：“她涉嫌代表第三国从事间谍活动，并涉嫌参与犯罪组织。”声明中未透露该国或该犯罪组织的具体名称。

The intern was first flagged by the security services at the Supreme Headquarters Allied Powers Europe, or SHAPE, which is near Mons, Belgium. The case was then referred to Belgian intelligence and a police investigation was launched, the federal prosecutor’s office said.

这名实习生最初被位于比利时蒙斯附近的欧洲盟军最高司令部(SHAPE)的安全部门发现可疑。联邦检察官办公室表示，此案随后被移交给比利时情报部门，警方随即展开调查。

That investigation led to searches of the woman’s home and place of work on Thursday, and a judge decided to place her under arrest on Friday, the prosecutor’s office said, adding in its statement that it would not comment further on the case.

检察官办公室称，调查过程中，警方于周四搜查了这名女子的住所和工作场所，法官决定于周五对其下达逮捕令，并在声明中补充说，不会对此案作进一步评论。

Canada’s Foreign Ministry and the Canadian Embassy in Brussels did not immediately respond to requests for comment on Saturday.

加拿大外交部及加拿大驻布鲁塞尔大使馆在周六没有立即回应置评请求。

SHAPE, which plans and executes NATO’s military operations, was cooperating with the Belgian authorities, said Col. Martin O’Donnell, a SHAPE spokesman.

SHAPE负责规划和执行北约军事行动，其发言人马丁·奥唐奈上校表示，该机构正在与比利时当局合作。

“At this time, there is no indication that NATO or SHAPE operational readiness, command and control arrangements, or ongoing tasks have been adversely affected,” he said in a statement.

他在声明中表示：“目前，没有任何迹象表明北约或SHAPE的战备状态、指挥和控制安排，以及正在进行的任务受到了不利影响。”
