A little over a week after a former top aide to New York Gov. Kathy Hochul was arrested for spying on behalf of the Chinese Communist Party, another New York government employee was found to have close ties to the CCP.
Last year, he was “handpicked” by Mayor Eric Adams and NYPD Commissioner Edward Caban to serve in his current role, despite having only worked for the NYPD, and for law enforcement in general, for less than two years.
And, earlier this year, a NYPD cop was fired for allegedly spying for the CCP, according to internal disciplinary records.
United Front is funded and controlled by the Chinese Communist Party, and works to spread Chinese propaganda in the U.S., according to the U.S. government.
Lt. Steven Li was working for the NYPD’s Internal Affairs Bureau when he allegedly helped a Chinese official find and attempt to repatriate a Chinese fugitive living in New York.
The nonprofit, the Fujian Changle Nanxiang Benevolent Association of Eastern America, is financially tied to a number of CCP-controlled groups known collectively as United Front.
