SYDNEY—China arrested an Australian writer for alleged spying, Australia’s government said, in a case that exacerbates tense relations between the two countries.
Yang Hengjun, a blogger and spy novelist who had been in custody for the past half-year, was formally arrested in China on Aug. 23 on suspicion of committing espionage, Australian Foreign Minister Marise Payne said Tuesday. If eventually convicted at trial, Dr. Yang could be forced to serve a long prison sentence.
