Criminal Trial of Zhongsan Lui For Stealth Recruitment For China After EDNY Indictments

By Matthew Russell Lee, Patreon Maxwell Book
BBC - Guardian UK - Honduras - ESPN

SDNY COURTHOUSE, March 16 –    Zhongsan Liu was indicted in 2019 for stealth recruitment in the US for the Chinese government. His trial began on March 15, and Inner City Press was there. 

  Liu was working for or through the "China Association for International Exchange of Personnel" or CAIEP.

On March 15 an Australian expert Alexander Joske told the jury that CAIEP is a Chinese government organ, though it (like many at the United Nations) calls itself a non governmental organization.

He also testified about SEFEA, the Chinese State Administration for Foreign Expert Affairs.  

 Lui's lawyer wanted to voir dire at least part of Joske's expertise. U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York Judge Valerie E. Caproni said it could be done after the jurors left at 5 pm. She told the jurors, If there is any press, which I doubt there will be, don't read it.

  Inner City Press published the above that evening, and on March 16 asked EDNY US Attroney Brion Peace about his Office's indictment of five more for spying and worse for China, see here including the release on bail of
Fan “Frank” Liu, Matthew Ziburis and Shujun Wang.

  In the SDNY trial of Zhongsan Lui, an FBI agent testified about pole camera footage from outside 807-809 Anderson Avenue and a woman in a green or shiny black jacket. The judge asked how having a relationship with her would be prejudicial and should be kept from the jury, set to return on March 17 like Inner City Press.

The case is US v. Liu, 19-cr-804 (Caproni).
