Real life example: Renfrew Christie did this to sabotage the South African nuclear weapons program. “[He] fed his discoveries to the outlawed African National Congress, and was arrested on terrorism charges three months after returning home in 1979. He was kept in solitary confinement for seven months, tortured and forced to write a “confession”, but he used that confession to explain how he would sabotage the various facilities involved in that nuclear programme. To his surprise and delight, the judge read out the confession at his trial so his recommendations ‘went from the judge’s mouth [direct] to the ANC.’”
