Is Alec Stewart a spy? The Algerian authorities say yes, Mogul says no. It is possible: he travels all over the world, is accepted everywhere without question, and moves in the highest circles. But he has never expressed strong political opinions and he certainly doesn'need the money, so why should he spy? Stewart's close friends and colleagues think and think again while he is in captivity. Guilty or no, he can certainly never be regarded in exactly the same light again.
