Luxembourg secret service documents transferred to national archives

(CS) Files of Luxembourg's secret service SREL have been transferred to the national archives, the Chamber of Deputies announced on its website on Thursday.

An enquiry commission had decided in September that the archival documents should be transferred, with the “Archives Nationales de Luxembourg” charged with a historical evaluation of the files.

The move has now been completed.

Members of the public can enquire to find out whether a file was kept on them and to see this file. An official request needs to be made with the prosecutor's office:

Autorité de contrôle “Article 17”                                                    Parquet Général - Secrétariat du Parquet Général                            Cité Judiciaire                                                                                 L-2080 Luxembourg

Reportedly, around 500 people have already made such a request.
