A scientist from the Parliament of the UK who was detained under anti-espionage legislation after being accused of spying for China has stated that he is” completely stupid.”
The person claimed he felt” forced to respond” to press charges in a speech made public by attorneys.
Two men were detained in March under the Official Secrets Act, including the scholar.
It is known that the scholar had contact with a number of Conservative MPs.
It is improper for me to be required to create any kind of public opinion regarding the misreporting that has occurred, according to a quote from his attorneys.
But, given what has been said, it is crucial that everyone knows that I am completely honest.
” I have spent my entire job trying to inform people about the dangers and challenges posed by the Chinese Communist Party.”
It would be against all I stand for to act in accordance with the accusations made against me in luxurious news reporting.
Two people were detained in March under the Official Secrets Act, the Metropolitan Police confirmed on Saturday.
While the other man, who was in his 20s, was arrested in Edinburgh, one of the people was detained in Oxfordshire.
One of them, according to sources, was a political researcher who worked on global affairs-related issues.
The Met’s Counter Terrorism Command, which is in charge of espionage-related offenses, is looking into the release of both men on bond.
