CANBERRA, Australia — A Chinese Australian journalist who was convicted on murky espionage charges and detained in China for three years has returned to Australia, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said Wednesday. Cheng Lei, 48, worked for the international department of China's state broadcaster CCTV. She has reunited with her two children in Melbourne, Albanese said. Albanese said Australia had traded nothing with China for Cheng's release.
Albanese's reference to China's judicial system suggested that Cheng had recently been sentenced after she was convicted in a closed-court trial last year on national security charges. Questioned by a reporter, Albanese said China was not acknowledging through Cheng's release that she posed no threat or had been wrongfully detained. “No, China would have not have said that that's the position.
