Bo Jiang, a contract researcher working on "source code for high technology imaging" at NASA's Langley Research Center, was arrested under a charge of lying to federal officer on March 16, 2013 at Dulles International Airport on his planned one-way journey to return to China. He has been accused of espionage by Representative Frank Wolf, and is under investigation for possible violations of the Arms Export Control Act. An affidavit claimed that on a prior occasion, Jiang had taken a NASA laptop containing sensitive information to China. On March 28, 2013, a U.S. Judge ordered Jiang released after a federal prosecutor acknowledged there is no evidence so far that he possessed any sensitive, secret or classified material. Jiang's lawyer says congressman is making "scapegoat" of his client and a subject of witch hunt. On May 2, 2013, Bo Jiang was exonerated in federal court of the only felony charge of lying to federal investigators, despite the hype in media that he was a Chinese spy.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.nianet.org/press-releases/nia-statement-on-the-release-of-dr-bo-jiang/ )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://hamptonroads.com/2013/05/chinese-scientist-freed-after-felony-case-collapses )〕 On October 26, 2015 Congressman John Culberson announced the indictment of two Langley Research Center supervisors, accusing them of complicity in "espionage" in the affair. However no evidence of espionage was ever presented. == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bo Jiang (NASA researcher)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
