The FBI has arrested a California real estate agent at Los Angeles International Airport as she was leaving the country and accused her of spying on the Taiwan president’s family for China. The FBI and U.S. prosecutors say Wanying Zhang surveilled the Taiwanese president’s son and his family. She was arrested on charges for working for China as an unregistered agent. Zhang appeared in downtown Los Angeles federal court Monday for an initial hearing. She has not yet been formally indicted and is due in court again Wednesday. Taiwan confirmed President Lai Ching-te’s relatives were the targets and said it condemned the disregard for human rights and sovereignty.

Human rights advocates have asked a United Nations panel to intervene in a new U.S. government practice that they say amounts to the “enforced disappearance” of noncitizens. The practice involves withholding the whereabouts of thousands of detainees facing deportation from families and lawyers. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement removed the names of detainees with final removal orders from its Online Detainee Locator System on Sept. 15. This change affects over 16,000 detainees and is an apparent effort to speed up deportations. The rights groups argue it obstructs legal counsel and devastates families. The Department of Homeland Security denied that the practice amounts to disappearance, noting detainees can still contact lawyers and relatives.
