An RCMP expert in electronic surveillance has been arrested in Montreal and charged with selling police secrets to organized crime, Sun Media has learned.

Angelo Cecere, a 50-year-old visually impaired civilian employee, has worked for decades for the RCMP, listening to sensitive police wiretaps, translating them from Italian, and interpreting them for police.

Sources say Mounties learned their reports were being leaked to criminals and set up a sting operation that led to Cecere’s arrest for breach of trust.

Neither the Mounties, nor Cecere, agreed to confirm the arrest or the charges.
