In this episode, we sit down with Aimen Dean - a former terrorist turned British spy. Aimen joined Al-Qaeda in the late 90s but soon had a change of heart. We hear how he was recruited by the British intelligence services and sent back to Afghanistan to spy on the world's most dangerous terrorist organisation, through 9/11 and the London bombings, before he was eventually exposed.
