According to this site:
He took a job with a university in Singapore, which triggered his current university to terminate him with a “do not re-hire” flag.
So that doesn’t explain the FBI raid, but it does explain why he was scrubbed from his current university.
Thanks for sharing! I hope he gets a fair process and that it’s just a coincidence.

Apparently the Indiana university accused him of not disclosing funding from China on research for federal contracts. He explained it, but they told him they were still investigating.
So… he takes a job with a University in Singapore, Indiana fires him and scrubs his information, and the FBI starts investigating, also likely due to the Chinese angle.
His lawyer reports he and his wife are safe.
