US Navy Sailors detained for espionage and bribery due to connections with foreign adversary.
Two U.S. Navy Sailors Arrested on Espionage and Bribery Charges
In a shocking development, two U.S. Navy sailors have been apprehended on charges related to national security and their connections to China. The arrests were made public on Thursday by U.S. officials.
The first sailor, a 22-year-old assigned to a ship in San Diego, was taken into custody on Wednesday. The charges against him involve espionage and a conspiracy to transmit sensitive national defense information to Chinese officials. The officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity as they were not authorized to discuss the matter publicly, revealed this alarming information.
Meanwhile, another sailor was arrested at Naval Base Ventura County, located north of Los Angeles. This individual has been charged with conspiracy and receiving a bribe from a Chinese official. It remains unclear whether the two cases are connected.
The U.S. Justice Department declined to comment when contacted by The Associated Press. However, federal officials are expected to provide further details during a press conference scheduled in San Diego later today.
