A Chinese national who worked as an executive for an unnamed U.S. video conferencing company spied on users of the company’s platform for the Chinese Communist Party’s intelligence services, the Justice Department announced Friday.
Xinjiang Jin, who also went by Julien Jin, spied on users of the video conference platform in the U.S. and shut down at least four conferences meant to commemorate the anniversary of the Tiananmen Square massacre, according to a complaint against Jin that was unsealed on Friday.
Jin, who is currently in China and was added to the FBI’s “Most Wanted” list in November, is charged with conspiracy to commit interstate harassment and unlawful conspiracy to transfer means of identification.
