A Chinese national, who was previously convicted of illegally acting as a foreign agent of China, was arrested by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents.
Ming Xi Zhang, who owns Ya Ya Noodles in Montgomery Township, New Jersey, was arrested by ICE agents in Newark on March 24, according to a press release from ICE. Zhang currently remains in ICE custody while waiting for immigration proceedings.
In April 2024, Zhang was convicted by the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey for “illegally acting as an agent of a foreign government without prior notification to the Attorney General.” Zhang received a sentence of three years probation.
“Any illegal alien conducting activities related to espionage, sabotage or export control against the United States is subject to deportation,” said John Tsoukaris, the field office director for ICE’s Enforcement and Removal Operations Newark Office.
