It is being reported that an active duty Chinese military researcher who is under investigation by the FBI for alleged visa fraud has entered the Chinese consulate in San Francisco for protection.
Because it is considered an extension of China’s main embassy, this consulate is now a safe harbor for this individual, who is believed to be part of a communist Chinese spy network operating here on American soil.
If this can be confirmed, it would validate claims made by Senator Marco Rubio that China’s entire Houston consulate “is a massive spy center.” Rubio recently tweeted that he believes “forcing it to close is long overdue,” calling it a “spy shop” that facilitates the “Communist Party’s vast network of spies & influences operations in the United States.”
While the FBI’s claims about this particular Chinese military researcher still need to be validated, their confirmation would represent a “highly unusual” and “extraordinary” case, especially considering the extreme abuse of consular privileges that has been identified.
“It is highly unusual for a Chinese diplomatic post to associate so closely with a suspect in an intellectual property theft-related case,” says Minyao Wang, a New York-based cybercrimes lawyer.
“Sheltering a defendant in a criminal case by using the diplomatic immunity of a consular building, if true, is really extraordinary.”
Tang Juan, the researcher in question from the University of California, Davis who had been admitted to the country on a J-1 visa, a non-immigrant visa issued to scholars who engage in exchange-type programs, apparently lied on her visa application by claiming that she has no affiliation with the People’s Liberation Army (PLA), also known as the Chinese military.
Tang is not only affiliated with the PLA, it turns out, but she also worked at the Air Force Military Medical University (FMMU), a PLA-affiliated university located in communist China. She is also considered to be “active military personnel.”
After obtaining a warrant to search her home, the FBI says it found evidence that Tang is directly affiliated with the PLA. She was later on June 26 charged with committing visa fraud.
After learning about the charge, Tang immediately fled to the San Francisco consulate where she is now said to be hiding out with Chinese diplomatic protection.
“At some point following the search and interview of Tang on June 20, 2020, Tang went to the Chinese Consulate in San Francisco, where the FBI assesses she has remained,” court filings explain.
“As the Tang case demonstrates, the Chinese consulate in San Francisco provides a potential safe harbor for a PLA official intent on avoiding prosecution in the United States.”
The FBI says that it has formally notified Beijing about Tang, explaining that she is “a charged individual.” This would imply that the communist Chinese regime is fully aware that Tang is now a fugitive trying to escape justice, but is choosing not to take action.
This news comes on the heels of other reports suggesting that the mainstream media has also been complicit in covering for the dirty deeds of communist China, which include persecuting and slaughtering its Falun Gong prisoners.
“This comes amid a spate of similar charges against Chinese nationals at research and academic institutions who attempted to conceal their ties with Chinese government entities,” notes A.J. Nelson, writing for We Are Change. “However it seems the first such case of an individual hiding out at a consular or embassy compound.”
“All of this of course means that as intense as this week has already been, things are about to get a lot hotter between Beijing and Washington now that the case is public knowledge and out in the open,” Nelson adds.
