   Along with Mata Hari and Cynthia, Tamara Bouqest, alias Tania, has been the most talked about “sex spy”. She was a very brilliant and successful spy who worked for three countries simultaneously. She loved Che Guevara, the most famous revolutionary leader of the time, and worked for him also. The Imperialist countries hold her responsible for the death of Che Guevara, but the communist countries respect her as a very great patriot and a Guerrilla fighter of great courage.
