Last Friday, May 8, 2026, government spies who had me under surveillance in multiple countries, they took things to the next level and tried to end my life in broad daylight on foreign soil, in Thailand.

They tried to make it look like a traffic accident.

But they failed.

Who are they working for? Who gave them the order to end my life?

Listen to the first episode of my new investigative series: Dirty Rotten Finland.
