University Professor from China Shows No Remorse for Stealing Technologies for Huawei, and Will Return to China with his Family after Released with a Reduced Scabbard Period

A visiting professor at Texas-Arlington University in the US, Bo Mao, who allegedly stole U.S. technology for Chinese telecommunications giant Huawei, has admitted to the FBI for making false statements. Judge Pamela Chen from Brooklyn District Court in New York sentenced the case on Monday, releasing him on remand despite the defendant express no remorse. Bo Mao is scheduled to return to China with his family on Wednesday.

Mao Bo, aged 37, came from Xiamen, Fujian. He is married and has two children. He teaches in Xiamen University and was arrested in the US in August last year. The prosecutor said that Mao reached an agreement with Silicon Valley’s CNEX Labs, to obtain its circuit board ostensibly for academic research, but ultimately shared the proprietary information with Huawei.
