Chinese ambassador foreshadows charges against Australian journalist

Chinese Ambassador to Australia Cheng Jingye has foreshadowed official charges being laid against Australian journalist Yang Hengjun. Dr Yang, who became an Australian citizen in 2002, was arrested in August on suspicion of espionage, seven months after he was originally detained. The ambassador said the case was still under further investigation but said formal charges would be laid “in due course”. “As I understand, he is in good condition and his rights have been protected and will be protected,” Mr Cheng said. “In due time you will know the details.” Image: Twitter / @yanghengjun Via news.com.au — Australia’s #1 news site https://www.news.com.au
