Remember this guy? The fraudster is facing deportation with little media fanfare that accompanied his original sensational story.

Chinese 'spy' who tried to defect to Australia claiming he would spill Beijing's espionage secrets is denied a visa despite fears for his safety if he is deported​

  • A man who sensationally claimed to have done spy work for China denied visa
  • Asylum seeker Liqiang Wang broadcast stories of high level espionage work
  • Tribunal denies him visa for committing fraud despite admitting he is in danger

A confessed spy for Beijing who sensationally went on national TV to expose the extent of China's overseas espionage activities has been denied the right to stay in Australia.
Liqiang Wang, 32, has lost his appeal for refugee asylum after a tribunal ruled he had committed serious fraud against an Australian citizen.
This leaves the Chinese national open to deportation despite the tribunal saying Mr Wang had 'well-founded' fears of what might happen should he return to his homeland.
