Authorities arrested two Chinese nationals on Monday, April 17, for running a secret, illegal police station in New York City. The Department of Justice has accused Lu Jianwang and Chen Jinping of helping “monitor and intimidate” Chinese dissidents in the United States.

China has since called the accusations “groundless” and said the operation was simply a service center. Federal prosecutors say the officers staffing the station were reportedly from China’s Ministry of Public Security and were operating in the U.S. without the knowledge or consent of American authorities.

“The two defendants whose arrests were announcing today destroyed evidence of their communications with the Chinese National Police when they learned of the FBI’s investigation. These two defendants knew they had something to hide and they obstructed justice in an attempt to prevent the FBI from learning the full extent of what they were up to,” said Breon Peace, United States Attorney for the Eastern District of New York.
