Two Chinese nationals were arrested by the FBI on charges of spying on the U.S. Navy for China’s government.
One of the men, Yuance Chen, 38, a permanent resident of the U.S., stands accused of gathering intelligence at Navy facilities, recruiting other potential Chinese intelligence assets from the Navy, and facilitating a $10,000 dead-drop payment on China’s behalf.
The other man, Liren “Ryan” Lai, 39, allegedly acted as Chen’s point of communication to the Ministry of State Security, a Chinese foreign intelligence agency.
