Taiwan confirms Chinese woman in Nvidia spy case entered on Hong Kong passport

thestar.com.my —

A Chinese woman accused of spying on Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang entered Taiwan using a Hong Kong passport, the island's immigration agency confirmed Wednesday, as authorities investigate the case. Jensen Huang has admitted to an affair with Alice Huang, a former Megaspeed executive US officials believe worked for Chinese intelligence. Taiwan's immigration chief confirmed her entry records, while Interior Minister Liu Shyh-fang said her permit has been revoked. Beijing has rejected the spying allegations. Nvidia's board opened a probe into Jensen Huang on Sunday. Hong Kong passport holders face fewer travel restrictions to Taiwan than mainland Chinese passport holders due to complex cross-strait relations.
