FBI tried to recruit professor as agent

An agent of the US Federal Bureau of Investigation was forced to admit in court that he lied in order to smear a Chinese-born scientist. In the trial of materials scientist Hu Anming, a Canadian citizen, FBI investigator Kujtim Sadiku revealed an astonishing modus operandi. He said that after a Google search, he concluded that Hu was in Chinese service. He then informed the University of Tennessee that Hu was working for the Chinese military. He had the professor and his son placed under surveillance and even ordered the seizure of his computer. In the coming days, either a judge or a jury will decide on the charges against Hu.
