WTAF Inside China's secret police station in NEW YORK that hunts down dissidents and forces them to return home

One of at least 54 secret Chinese police stations is located in New York City's Chinatown neighborhood

A human rights watchdog reported the existence of these stations around the world to observe and hunt down dissidents

Many stations around the world are disguised, often running inside Chinese restaurants or convenience stores

Since the station's opened in April 2021, the Chinese government has said it 'persuaded' 230,000 Chinese nationals to return home


A new report from Safeguard Defenders, a human rights watchdog, revealed that the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has at least 54 'overseas police service stations' in 30 different countries, including the US.

New York's station, located on East Broadway between Chinatown and the Lower East Side, was open on February 15, according to the Chinese-language news site FJSEN.


Like many of police stations around the world, the New York site is promoted as a place to assist Chinese nationals through bureaucracy.

Since the program's launch in April 2021, China reported that it had 'persuaded' 230,000 Chinese nationals to return home.

Although the CCP claims the stations are meant to keep an eye on 'fraud and telecom fraud' committed by citizens living aboard, the human rights group condemned the stations.

Laura Harth, the Safeguard Defenders' campaign manager, said it was shocking to learn that China was carrying out police operations in foreign countries.

'I think it shows how brazen the CCP is getting and how little regard they have for other governments,' she told Fox News. 'It's in violation of international law, it's in violation of territorial sovereign.'

The report warned that China was likely expanding its program around the world.

Along with the list of police stations, Safeguard Defenders also noted that China has designated nine Asian countries as 'forbidden' and issued calls for all nations to return from their immediately.

The countries include Turkey, the United Arab Emirates, Myanmar, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Malaysia, the Philippines and Indonesia.

According to the report, one Chinese restaurant owner based in Cambodia was pushed to return to China after police warned her that her mother's power would be cut off if she didn't.
