Ex- agent says CIA wanted false data. WASHINGTON - - A fired CIA agent, whom a newspaper says told superiors in 2. Iraq had abandoned part of its nuclear program, is asking the FBI to investigate allegations that the spy agency dismissed him for refusing to falsify intelligence. A July 1. 1 letter to FBI Director Robert S. Mueller III from the former agent's lawyer suggests that CIA officials may be guilty of criminal violations involving intelligence he produced on weapons of mass destruction in 2. The lawyer, Roy Krieger, said his client initially asked the CIA's inspector general to investigate allegations that CIA officials had pressured him to alter the intelligence and retaliated when he refused.

No such weapons have been found in Iraq, and US arms investigators have concluded that Baghdad abandoned its nuclear- development program soon after the 1. Gulf War. The former CIA agent was not available for comment. Krieger declined to discuss details of the case. A CIA spokeswoman also declined to comment. Krieger's letter to the FBI states that CIA officials accused the former agent of sexual and financial misconduct in an attempt to discredit him and retaliate for his refusal to falsify intelligence.
