SDNY COURTHOUSE, Nov 16 – For a scheme to rob $10 million from banks and move it to foreign cryptocurrency exchanges, Fei Jiang and two others were indicted and presented on November 16, 2023. 

  Fei Jiang was ordered free on $50,000 bond in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York Magistrates Court. Inner City Press was there, the only media in the SDNY Mag Court.  

 Magistrate Judge Robert W. Lehrburger said that if Pre-Trial Services does not find Jiang's resident appropriate, his release may be revisited.

The AUSA added that his GPS should include an exclusion for area airports including Atlantic City and Teterboro. The other defendants are Naifeng Xu (presented in Oklahoma) and Zhong Shi Gao, freed on bond in SDNY. 

The case is US v. Gao, at el., 23-cr-572 (McMahon / Lehrburger)
