See: Police spy misleads inquiry about sexual relations with women (The Guardian, link):

"The undercover officer initially told the inquiry he had not had sexual relationships with the two women while using the fake name of James Straven.

He later admitted to having the relationships while he infiltrated animal rights groups between 1997 and 2002. The two women only discovered he had deceived them after he made this admission."
