A suspected Chinese spy with business ties to Prince Andrew has been barred from the U.K. due to concerns about national security. The decision was upheld by a British immigration tribunal, which revealed that the Chinese national had developed a close relationship with Prince Andrew, even being invited to the prince's birthday party.
Government officials expressed worries that the individual could have misused his influence, especially considering the pressure Prince Andrew was under at the time. The Chinese national is believed to have been working on behalf of the United Front Work Department, an arm of the Chinese Communist Party used for foreign influence.
