Ex-RCMP investigator charged in China interference plot gets bail

From the creator

An ex-RCMP officer accused of attempting to aid the People’s Republic of China in a foreign interference operation has been granted bail. William “Bill” Majcher was charged last Thursday with two counts of violating Canada’s official secrets law, the Security of Information Act, allegedly to benefit the Chinese government between 2014 and 2019. Majcher is a retired Mountie who lived in Hong Kong after retiring from the force in 2007. Few details are known about the case, but the RCMP told Global News on Friday that they believe it involved an operation to identify and intimidate someone on Canadian soil. The target of the alleged operation is not known. Majcher has been detained in British Columbia since his arrest last week, and the allegations have not been tested in court.
