A US citizen has been convicted of helping run what has been described as the first known secret police station in the US on behalf of the Chinese government.
A jury found that Lu Jianwang, 64, opened and operated the station in Manhattan’s Chinatown neighbourhood in early 2022 for China’s Ministry of Public Security (MPS).
He was found guilty on charges of acting as an illegal agent of the government of China in connection with the station and with obstruction of justice for destroying related evidence.

The verdict follows a week-long jury trial in New York federal court.
Jianwang, a New York resident also known as Harry Lu, faces up to 30 years in prison, prosecutors said.
His co-defendant Chen Jinping pleaded guilty in December 2024 to conspiring to act as an agent of the People’s Republic of China (PRC) in connection with the overseas police station. He is awaiting sentencing.
