US warns China on agents pressuring expatriates to return home

A woman in California was arrested on Tuesday on federal charges of conspiring to procure and illegally export sensitive space communications technology to her native China, according to the US Justice Department.

Si Chen, also known as Cathy Chen, faces 14 charges that accuse her of purchasing and smuggling more than $100,000 (89,000 euros) worth of equipment from the US to China between March 2013 and December 2015. Chen did so without obtaining proper export licenses that are required by federal law.

A resident of the Los Angeles suburb of Pomona, the 32-year-old Chen is accused of violating the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, which controls the export of certain goods and technology from the United States.

The indictment accuses Chen of shipping the items to her co-conspirators in China through Hong Kong under several false names and falsely stating the description of the products and their values.

Military communication jammers

"Federal export laws are designed to protect American interests by preventing the proliferation of technology that may fall into the wrong hands," said acting US Attorney Sandra Brown in a statement.

Along with the charges of exporting the material, which includes components in military communications jammers, Chen was charged with conspiracy, money laundering, making false statements on an immigration application and using a fake passport.

Chen pleaded not guilty at arraignment in US District Court in Los Angeles and was ordered to be held with bail pending a bond hearing set for Thursday. If Chen were to be convicted on all charges, she could face up to 150 years in prison.

REUTERS/Jon Super Manchester attack A suicide bomber killed at least 22 people, including some children, and wounded 59 others as fans streamed out of an Ariana Grande concert in Manchester, England. Police tweeted that they arrested a 23-year-old man in connection with the bombing and confirmed the attacker died in the arena. It’s the deadliest militant assault in Britain since four British Muslims killed 52 people in suicide bombings on London's transit system in July 2005. "We ran and people were screaming around us and pushing on the stairs to go outside and people were falling down, girls were crying, and we saw these women being treated by paramedics having open wounds on their legs ... it was just chaos," said Sebastian Diaz, 19. Prime Minister Theresa May called an emergency meeting with intelligence chiefs. Grande, 23, later said on Twitter: "broken. from the bottom of my heart, i am so so sorry. i don't have words."

Factbox: The key points of Trump’s 2018 budget proposal Trump talked up the prospects of peace between Israelis and Palestinians saying he believed both sides were committed to a historic deal. But he offered no concrete proposals on how to get there. Business Trump's proposal to sell half of the United States' strategic oil reserve surprised energy markets since it counters OPEC's efforts to control supply in order to boost prices. OPEC will likely agree to extend production cuts for another nine months, delegates said on Tuesday as the oil producer group meets this week to debate how to tackle a global glut of crude. Allegations that Canadian firm Bombardier dumped newly designed CSeries passenger jets in the United States at a steep loss have threatened a sale of F/A-18 warplanes to Ottawa, sending Boeing scrambling to save the deal. Some analysts say Boeing carelessly put at risk billions of dollars of defense work or pandered to growing protectionism. Hong Kong police arrested 21 Uber drivers for illegal car-hiring as part of a clamp down against the company’s operations in the city.   North Korea U.S.-based experts doubted the reliability of the relatively new solid-fuel type “medium-range” Pukguksong-2 missile North Korea launched Sunday. U.S. officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said the test did not demonstrate a new capability, or one that could threaten the United States directly. But the test was North Korea's second in a week and South Korea's new liberal government said it dashed its hopes for peace. South Korea's military fired warning shots at a suspected drone from North Korea amid tension over the latest missile test. Cyber security firm Symantec Corp said it was "highly likely" a hacking group affiliated with North Korea was behind the WannaCry cyber attack this month that infected more than 300,000 computers worldwide and disrupted hospitals, banks and schools across the globe. Raytheon and Lockheed Martin are working with Japanese partners on rival projects to develop new radars that will enhance Japan's shield against any North Korean missile strike, government and defense industry sources in Tokyo told Reuters.
