I’m sure that yesterday’s hijacking of flight NN561 and the subsequent assassination of special resources agent ‘Vladimir’ was as much of a shock to you as it was to me. Sources on the ground put the blame square on the shoulders of Vladimir’s Hong Kong based assets and host subject 425.

The group boarded flight NN561 at the Evo hangar at Kai Tak airport at approximately 15:00 hours. The flight took off at it’s scheduled time 20 minutes later. Flight reports, transponder traces and wireless records indicate that the plane left its indicated flight path 100 miles outside of Hong Kong, over international airspace, and detoured WNW, headed towards Longgang, China. Records indicate that the hull was breached over Yah Tien. It is presumed that some, or all, of the assets parachuted to safety.

The plane was then piloted by remote back towards Kai Tak airport. There, as you know, it crashed into the North Lantau Highway, destroying several buildings, wounding 37 and killing 16 (agent Vladimir and his associate included).

It is assumed that the assets escaped inland into China. Local assets have been deployed into the Hong Kong shadow community and we have begun tapping company agents as well as deniables in Nanshan and throughout Shenzhen Provence.
