Yuanjun Tang, a leader among pro-democracy activists in the U.S., was charged with acting as an unregistered agent of the Chinese government.
'As alleged, Tang used his position to collect information for the Chinese government, reporting on critics of the PRC and pro-democracy events.'
U.S. Attorney Damian Williams stated, 'Today's charges reflect this Office's commitment to combating the repressive and illegal use of foreign agents in the U.S.'
Tang, imprisoned for protesting the CCP, defected to Taiwan in 2002 and later obtained asylum in the U.S., where he led a nonprofit for democracy.
