'Everything possible' done to take alleged China spies to court: UK prosecutors
The Straits Times
|October 09, 2025
British prosecutors on Oct 7 said they did "everything possible" to bring a trial of two men accused of spying for China to court, but it collapsed when the government declined to label Beijing an enemy.
-
In an unexpected move, British prosecutors in September dropped charges of spying for China against two men just weeks before they were due to go on trial.
The men, Christopher Cash, 30, a former director of the China Research Group think-tank, and Christopher Berry, 33, were first arrested in March 2023, and in April the following year were charged with passing politically sensitive information to a Chinese intelligence agent.
They denied all the accusations against them.
The charges were made under the Official Secrets Act, which specifies it is a crime to communicate any documents which might be useful to "an enemy".
