FBI provides evidence of visa fraud at ZTE probation hearing

An FBI agent testified on Monday that Chinese nationals brought to the United States under research visas went to work for ZTE Corp in New Jersey – a possible sign the Chinese tech company violated its probation following a 2017 U.S. plea deal in a prior case.

At a hearing in federal court in Dallas, FBI special agent Marcus Wondergem said Chinese nationals were brought to the United States under the guise that they would be doing research at the lab of Georgia Tech professor Gee-Kung Chang, but spent almost no time there and moved to apartments near ZTE in Morristown, New Jersey.

“Is it true that some of these individuals spent months without entering the lab?” Assistant U.S. Attorney John de la Garza asked Wondergem.

“Yes, it is,” Wondergem replied.

The testimony may support the accusation that ZTE violated its probation from its guilty plea in a case involving illegally shipping American technology to Iran. U.S. District Court Judge Ed Kinkeade summoned the company to his courtroom over the possible violation involving an alleged conspiracy to commit visa fraud.

I’d like to ask, “Agent Wondergem, are you dually employed by both the FBI and the CIA? Cuz your surname sure appears that way.”
