Chinese Police Arrested 5 Formar Huawei Employees Who Discussed Sensetive Information Online


Chinese Police Arrested 5 Formar Huawei Employees Who Discussed Sensetive Information Online

By Techtonic group

Chinese smartphone maker Huawei has always denied the fact that it works for the Chinese government. However, recent reports suggest that that might not be the case for the company. According to a recent report by the New York Times, the Chinese police arrested five Huawei employees back in 2018 for discussing sensitive information about the company with Iranian journalists.

He was the Global Manager in Huawei's electrical inverter business. Hence, as he told the New York Times, he had contact with some Iranian colleagues.

“I only knew so much. Whatever I knew, I told them all of it,” stated Mr. Li. However, the police gave no reason why they were questioning him about Iran, added the former employee.

Now, these arrests raise the question of how Huawei operates in China. Although the company states that it has no ties with the Chinese government, however, these cases suggest that the Chinese government wants to protect its tech behemoth at all cost. Moreover, with the US-China trade war, it has become
