AT LEAST ONE OF THE CHINESE STUDENTS ARRESTED IN SOUTH KOREA FOR ALLEGEDLY TAKING DRONE VIDEO OF A UNITED STATES AIRCRAFT CARRIER REPORTEDLY HAS TIES TO THE CHINESE COMMUNIST PARTY. 

THE INCIDENT HAPPENED JUNE TWENTY-FIFTH WHEN THE U-S NAVY’S U-S-S THEODORE ROOSEVELT DOCKED AT THE NAVAL OPERATIONS COMMAND OF SOUTH KOREA IN BUSAN.

KOREA JOONGANG DAILY REPORTS THAT ONE OF THE THREE STUDENTS ACCUSED WAS RECOGNIZED AS A QUOTE “EXCELLENT COMMUNIST PARTY MEMBER” AT A CHINA UNIVERSITY IN 20-21. 

THE STUDENTS CLAIM THEY FILMED THE U-S AIRCRAFT CARRIER OUT OF CURIOSITY, BUT INVESTIGATORS SAY THEY FOUND CONTACT INFORMATION FOR CHINESE PUBLIC SECURITY OFFICIALS AND C-C-P NEWSLETTERS ON THE STUDENTS’ CELL PHONES.

THEY ALSO DISCOVERED THE SUSPECTS TOOK HUNDREDS OF PHOTOS AND VIDEOS OF SOUTH KOREAN AND U-S MILITARY FACILITIES … LEADING OFFICIALS TO BELIEVE THE SUSPECTS WERE COLLECTING INFORMATION ON THE BASES OVER AN EXTENSIVE PERIOD OF TIME AND REPORTING THEIR FINDINGS BACK TO CHINA. 

IT’S NOT KNOWN WHETHER THE OTHER TWO STUDENTS HAVE ANY OTHER CLEAR CONNECTIONS TO THE C-C-P … WHICH HAS BEEN THE SOLE RULING PARTY OF THE PEOPLE’S REPUBLIC OF CHINA SINCE 19-49.

IF INVESTIGATORS DETERMINE THE INCIDENT WAS PLANNED BY A CHINESE INTELLIGENCE AGENCY … THE SUSPECTS COULD FACE LIFE IN PRISON IF ADDITIONAL CHARGES OF TREASON ARE FILED.
