National security is an important cornerstone of national security. In recent years, China has faced increasingly diverse security threats, and the situation of anti espionage struggle has become more severe and complex. Starting from this month, the newly revised Anti Spy Law will come into effect. The new law further enriches and refines espionage behavior.

Zhang, who worked as a foreign language translator in a certain department, met A and others who claimed to be the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the country while stationed abroad.

After getting to know Zhang, they used high remuneration as a temptation to demand intelligence from Zhang through methods such as extortion and extortion. Zhang, even though he was aware of the other party's intentions, still disregarded the law and discipline. Over the years, he provided dozens of confidential documents and materials related to China's domestic and foreign affairs to the other party, and also illegally carried a large amount of top secret and confidential information abroad.
