A 62-year-old West German man and his 34-year-old son have been jailed on suspicion of espionage for Communist East Germany, West German officials said. The names of the men were not released. Meanwhile, the weekly Quick magazine reported that a West German husband-wife spy team who had close contacts with East German leader Erich Honecker has been betrayed by Hans-Joachim Tiedge, the West German counterspy who defected to the East last summer. Bonn refused to comment on the magazine’s report.
