The Justice Department announced the charges on Monday, saying two were arrested and 13 charged in three separate cases.<br \/>\nHuawei has been under the US radar since a few years ago when it was revealed that the company has suspicious ties with the Chinese government for espionage purposes. The FCC recently imposed a new ban on Huawei and ZTE to prevent them from entering the US market. The Justice Department says two Chinese agents tried to disrupt the investigation against Huawei by gaining access to confidential information and trial evidence. This will give the FCC a good chance to slap Huawei one more time.<br \/>\nOf course, the Justice Department has not clearly named the disputed company, but CNN and The Wall Street Journal say that Huawei is the same company that Chinese agents tried to obstruct its investigations.<br \/>\n\u201cThis case exposes the interconnection between PRC intelligence officers &amp; Chinese companies, and it demonstrates, once again, why such companies \u2014 especially in the telecommunications industry \u2014 should not be trusted to securely handle our sensitive personal data and communications,\u201d Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco said.<br \/>\nChinese agents offered bribes to a US law enforcement employee<br \/>\nAs per the findings, the agents worked on behalf of the Chinese government and offered bribes to a law enforcement employee to obtain access to confidential information. However, that employee was operating as a \u201cdouble agent on behalf of the FBI,\u201d the Justice Department noted.<br \/>\nAdditionally, the DOJ says that the double agent has sent a false classified document to the Chinese agents and received $41,000 in Bitcoin. The agents also paid bribes through cash and jewelry.<br \/>\nHuawei is one of many China-based tech companies that are accused of collaborating with the Chinese government. The video-sharing app TikTok was already charged with sending US data abroad and allowing China-based employees to access US users\u2019 data. The US administration also sanctions ZTE and some other less-known Chinese companies.<br \/>\nThe post Two Chinese Agents Reportedly Tried To Obstruct US Investigation Into Huawei appeared first on Android Headlines.&#013;<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/AH-Huawei-MateBook-X-Pro-2022-logo-image-2.jpg\" width=\"1600\" height=\"900\">&#013;<br \/>\nSource: ndroidheadlines.com&#013;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>According to The Verge, two Chinese intelligence officers are accused of obstructing the US investigation into Huawei.
