A former Chinese engineer has been sentenced to death for leaking state secrets to a foreign power, Beijing’s spy agency said on March 19.
The man, surnamed Liu, “secretly copied, duplicated, and sold a large volume of state secrets to a foreign espionage and intelligence agency”, China’s Ministry of State Security said in a post to its official WeChat account.
Liu had worked as an assistant engineer at a research institute and had resigned after believing he had been treated unfairly, the ministry said.
