"""An different turn of events" – alleged Chinese spy working for MP AfD for years was an informant of German intelligence"

4. Krah then wants to hire a man as an worker of the European Parliament. It can't be done without a safety check. So the European Parliament should have asked the German safety authorities if there was anything against this man. But seemingly it didn't. Otherwise, a man would not be cleared of the charges and could not be hired.

Indirect question: Where was the Office for the Protection of the Constitution at that time? Now, seriously, what's the problem? Really?

One of the main questions is why the Constitution Protection Office has never informed Krah or AfD of its suspicions, which is simply a standard operating procedure and aims to defend the organization from abroad infiltration.

It is worth noting that Jian G.'s approval to work for Krah created a favorable political script for the establishment, which later arrested him to slander AfD. It is worth noting that Jian G. was arrested just before the European Parliament elections.

The question now is whether BfV deliberately kept AfD in ignorance for years about the information she knew to harm the party.

Work for BfV as early as 2007

According to the paper "Bild" Jian G. was an informant of the Saxony Constitution Protection Office (BfV) at the earliest since 2007. He previously unsuccessfully offered to work in the national BfV branch, but was rejected and returned back to the Saxon BfV branch.

Jian G. reportedly collaborated with intelligence services on his own initiative, including providing information that active Chinese state actors taking action against Chinese refugees in Germany. 8 years after joining the Saxon BfV as an informant, the Saxon branch was informed by the national Office of Constitution Protection that G. might be a double spy.

In 2015 and 2016, G. was then straight observed by the counterintelligence department of the Constitution Protection Office. The officers besides questioned him about their suspicions, but were incapable to prove that he was a spy for China. Therefore, during this period he was mentioned as "a fishy case".

In 2018, G. was yet removed from the informant function by the Constitution Protection Office.

However, at that time, Jian G. had already made contact with Krah and then worked as his worker in the European Parliament from 2019. He was then closely monitored by national intelligence services from 2020 and yet arrested in April 2024.

As mentioned above, despite suspicion of espionage, a Chinese national was granted a German passport, he was besides a associate of the SPD for any time and was able to pass safety checks in the European Parliament.

Furthermore, BfV under the leadership of Thomas Haldenwang (CDU), who is notoriously anti-AfD and publically operates against the party, did not inform Krah or AfD of suspicion of espionage against Jian G.

As documented by Remix News, Haldenwang made quite a few comments on AfD, including state-funded television, all of which violated neutrality. Haldenwang belongs to the CDU party.
