I rather enjoy the different takes on this- a company with one employee and a two investors was "infiltrated?" What's the difference between Syrian intelligence infiltrating a company and being responsible for partially owning it?

Tatex was infiltrated by Syrian intelligence in the eighties; one of its shareholders was Mohammed Majed Said, who ran the Syrian intelligence directorate from 1987 to 1994

I assume the difference would be whether Syrian intelligence originally set it up or developed a connection later.
