The US Justice Department said that two citizens of Chinese origin, 61-year-old Liu Jianwang and 59-year-old Chen Jinping, have been arrested. In early 2022, the two opened a secret police post in Manhattan's Chinatown.

Accused of working for the Chinese government - Brian Peace, US Attorney for the Eastern District of New York, said these people were engaged in international repression targeting Chinese immigrants in New York and the United States at the behest of Beijing. The two arrested men are charged with conspiracy to act as agents of the Chinese government without notifying US authorities, as well as obstruction of justice.

The accused destroyed the evidence - Officials said that when these people came to know that they were being investigated, they removed the information about the conversation with the Public Ministry of China. These people were doing the work of provoking the people of China living in America, which is a violation of American laws.

what is chinese law - Let us tell you, according to Chinese law, any Chinese citizen living outside China or any Chinese company operating inside or outside China, is bound to give all information abroad to the Communist Party of China. Any Chinese citizen can be spied on at any time, whether they live in the country or abroad.

Presented in court - US officials said that these police stations were being used horribly. Both the accused were produced in the Brooklyn court on Monday, from where they have been sent to jail. Spain's human rights organization Safeguard Defenders said China has dozens of such secret police stations around the world, including in the United Kingdom and the United States.
