Bivši službenik britanske granične policije i jedan penzionisani policajac iz Hong Konga osuđeni su na zatvorske kazne u Velikoj Britaniji zbog špijuniranja disidenata i kritičara kineske vlade.

Tužioci su rekli da su se policajac Piter Vaj i bivši načelnik hongkonške policije Bil Juen predstavljali kao policajci i obaveštajci kako bi sprovodili nadzor i prikupljali informacije o disidentima u Hong Kongu.

Sudija Bobi Čima-Grab osudila je Vaja na 10 godina, a Juena na osam godina zatvora.

Ona je rekla da su "namerne, usklađene i ozbiljne akcije optuženih gurnule one koji su bili meta u strah i nevolju".

Njihove mete su bili bivši poslanik u Hong Kongu Natan Lo i aktivisti koje su nazivali "bubašvabama", kao i britanski političari koji su kritikovali Kinu, tvrde tužioci.

Porota je prošlog meseca proglasila Juean i Vaja krivima za kršenje Zakona o nacionalnoj bezbednosti jer su pomagali stranoj obaveštajnoj službi.

Vaj je osuđeni za zloupotrebu javne funkcije zbog korišćenja vladinog računara za traženje informacija o ljudima od interesa za vlasti Hong Konga.

Kineska ambasada u Velikoj Britaniji nazvala je slučaj političkom farsom čiji je cilj podrška antikineskim snagama koje su pobegle u Britaniju.
