Jim Patrick was an MI5 officer.

Patrick was described by Peter Wright as a 'one-eyed Gurkha officer who worked as an interrogator for D3' Peter Wright headed D3 section in the 1960s, and together with Patrick he interrogated a half-Polish MI5 officer who confessed to spying but immediately retracted the confession as a joke. This officer, who had succeeded Michael Hanley as head of MI5's Polish section and had himself interrogated Michael Goleniewski, was sacked from MI5 as a result.[1]
