The US Justice Department has filed charges against two Chinese intelligence officials. They are accused of initiating a criminal case against Huawei by the Ministry of Justice.
The agency filed charges against Gochum He and Zheng Wang. Allegedly, in 2017, they recruited to participate in investigations by US authorities related to the investigations against Huawei. But in fact, this man was attracted by an agent and worked for the FBI.
When the U.S. investigation into Huawei began, inspectors asked the agent for details of witnesses, legal proceedings, and new charges that could be brought against the company. In exchange for the dollars he received, cash and jewelry. Payments for messages were sent to inspections.
As the investigation expanded, He and Wang demanded a secretly certified recording of a video meeting with prosecutors discussing the trial of the case.
On one occasion, a US health official handed over to the Chinese a fake document marked “secret” representing an interested person in the case. He received $41,000 for it.
In the US, Chinese intelligence agents were working undercover in a fake think tank. At the moment they are not violated, and their whereabouts are unknown. [The Verge]
