The Department of Justice said in a press release that a man pleaded guilty to running a secret police station for communist China above a noodle restaurant in New York City. The secret police stations have been reported to be hidden across the world in order to further the aims of the communist government of China.

The secret police station "occupied an entire floor in an office building in Manhattan’s Chinatown" and was shut down in the fall of 2022. “The Department of Justice will continue to pursue anyone who attempts to aid the PRC’s efforts to extend their repressive reach into the United States," read a statement from Assistant Attorney General Matthew G.
