Prosecutors said Friday a Singaporean man living in Washington DC has pleaded guilty to being an 'illegal agent of a foreign power.'

According to CNN, he worked for Chinese intelligence for four or five years.

Using a fake consultancy site, he cultivated Americans with access to sensitive information.
