ICE Boston arrests Chinese fugitive, criminal alien wanted for embezzlement, fraud, drug crimes in Taiwan

BOSTON — U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, with the assistance of the Needham Police Department, apprehended a foreign fugitive and criminal alien wanted in China for embezzlement, criminal conversion, fraud, and felony drug trafficking, during a targeted enforcement action, Jan. 23.

“ERO Boston’s successful apprehension of this fugitive highlights our ongoing commitment to enforcing immigration laws and protecting U.S. communities,” said ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations acting Boston Field Office Director Patricia H. Hyde. “We will continue to prioritize public safety by arresting and removing any criminal alien who attempts to remain in our New England neighborhoods in an effort to evade criminal prosecution.”

The fugitive lawfully entered the United States as a temporary visitor May 2019 and was required to depart by August 2019, which she failed to do.

The criminal alien will remain in ERO custody until her removal.

“Arresting this foreign fugitive and criminal alien underscores the importance of our collaboration with local law enforcement to safeguard public safety and uphold the integrity of our immigration system,” said Hyde.
