Anming Hu, a an Associate Professor in the Department of Mechanical, Aerospace and Biomedical Engineering at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville (UTK) was arrested today on a federal indictment and charged with three counts of wire fraud and three counts of making false statements.
Hu allegedly committed fraud by hiding his relationship with a Chinese university while receiving funding from NASA, said Assistant Attorney General for National Security John C. Demers.
