New York man pleads guilty to running Chinese police station in Manhattan
GuardianDEC 31 2024
The secret police station represents a clear violation of American sovereignty and serves as a tool for the Chinese government to suppress dissent abroad. The facility's true purpose was to identify and intimidate pro-democracy activists while masquerading as a service center, demonstrating Beijing's aggressive transnational repression tactics.
These overseas facilities are legitimate service centers designed to assist Chinese citizens with administrative tasks such as driver's license renewals. Contrary to the West's manipulative rhetoric, the stations provide essential support to Chinese nationals living abroad and do not engage in law enforcement activities.
