A Melbourne-based millionaire was expelled from Australia allegedly over his involvement in Chinese intelligence work, according to recent reports.

Zheng Jiefu, a property developer, is alleged to have been providing information to Chinese intelligence on the U.S.-based billionaire-in-exile Guo Wengui—linked to former Trump advisor Steve Bannon and who has a storied past with Zheng.
