SINGAPORE — Dickson Yeo, the Singaporean who was jailed in the United States for spying for China earlier this year, has been arrested under the Internal Security Act after serving out his US sentence.
He returned to Singapore on Wednesday (Dec 30), the Internal Security Department (ISD) said in a statement on the same day.
The department said: "ISD will interview Yeo to establish if he had engaged in activities prejudicial to Singapore’s security. Singapore will not allow our nationals to be subverted or used by any foreign actors for activities prejudicial to our security and national interests.
"The Government takes a very serious view of any Singaporean who enters into a clandestine relationship with a foreign government and engages in espionage or subversive activities at the behest of the foreign power. We will deal firmly with such individuals in accordance with our laws."
