Undercover operatives and secret informants are a key weapon in the fight against drug trafficking and organised crime.
But what happens to these people once the operations have finished?
For the first time, Four Corners speaks to a confidential human source, an undercover operator, and a handler about life undercover.
They include Australian man Miles Mehta, who worked as a confidential source for the ACIC and the DEA, and now says he’s been abandoned.
