A Bronx man was found guilty by a jury of acting as an unregistered foreign agent while running a “police station” in Manhattan’s Chinatown at the direction of the Chinese government.

Jianwang “Harry” Lu, 64, was also convicted Wednesday in Brooklyn federal court of obstruction of justice. Prosecutors said it was the first criminal case of its kind.

The most serious charge, obstruction, carries a maximum prison term of 20 years, the U.S. said. No sentencing date has been set. Lu, a U.S. citizen, remains free on bond.
