A Chinese national was arrested and charged with fraudulently obtaining U.S. visas for Chinese government employees, for the purpose of assisting Beijing’s efforts to recruit talents in the United States and advance its national goals, federal prosecutors allege.
Liu Zhongsan, 57, of Fort Lee, New Jersey, faces one count of conspiracy to commit visa fraud, which has a maximum penalty of five years, according to a Sept. 16 press release from the U.S. Department of Justice.
