The U.S. District Court wrote the following in its indictment: “Litang Liang knowingly acted and caused others to act in the United States as an agent of a foreign government, namely, the People’s Republic of China, without providing prior notification to the United States Attorney General, as required by law,”

Liang was accused of acting as a spy for the People’s Republic of China beginning in 2018. The prosecutors, in this case, allege that Liang would pass along information about American citizens and the activities of those citizens back to the CCP in China.

In January 2019, Liang co-founded the New England Alliance for the Peaceful Unification of China. He has served as the Vice President of the pro-PRC, an anti-Taiwanese independence organization, since 2021.

Liang was allegedly tasked with discovering information about various American citizens and reporting back to China on those activities. He might have reported significant and sensitive data to the CCP. The country could be at risk if he had access to any sensitive information concerning national security.
