The College Fix reports:
New charges filed against Harvard chemistry professor accused of spying for China, Wuhan University
The feds continue to pile on charges against the former chair of Harvard University’s chemistry and chemical biology department, Charles Lieber, who they accuse of being a paid spy for China.
On Tuesday he was was indicted by a Boston-based federal grand jury on two counts of filing false information on his income tax returns and another two counts of failing to file reports with the IRS regarding his overseas bank accounts, the Department of Justice stated in a news release.
The charges come just one month after the Harvard chemist was indicted for allegedly making false statements denying his involvement with a nefarious talent recruitment program sponsored by the communist Chinese government.
The department alleges that unbeknownst to Harvard University, Lieber, 61, had became a “strategic scientist” at the Wuhan University of Technology and later “a contractual participant in China’s Thousand Talents Plan from at least 2012 through 2015.”
Harvard University’s media affairs division did not immediately respond to a request for comment Tuesday from The College Fix.
“Under the terms of Lieber’s three-year Thousand Talents contract, WUT allegedly paid Lieber a salary of up to $50,000 per month, living expenses of up to $150,000 and awarded him more than $1.5 million to establish a research lab at WUT,” the department stated.
