FBI agents executed search warrants last week at two homes owned by Indiana University computer science professor XiaoFeng Wang and his wife.

Indiana University terminated professor Xiaofeng Wang on Friday, the same day that two of his homes were searched by the FBI, according to a document sent by the American Association of University Professors’ IU Bloomington chapter.

IU professor Xiaofeng Wang and his wife, IU Libraries analyst Nianli Ma, are safe, have not been arrested and face no pending criminal charges, their lawyers told the Indiana Daily Student in a statement Wednesday.

Xiaofeng Wang, a longtime computer science professor at Indiana University, has disappeared along with his wife, and their profiles on the school's website were wiped ahead of recent FBI raids.

IU fired Wang March 28 without following standard process, the same day the FBI searched his homes in Carmel and Bloomington.

A tenured computer security professor at Indiana University and his university-employed wife have not been seen publicly since federal agents raided their homes late last week.

Attorney Jason Covert’s statement is the first official word about the fate of the professor, XiaoFeng Wang, and his wife, Nianli Ma, since March 28, when the FBI and Department of Homeland Security carried out simultaneous searches on two homes associated with the couple, which was the same day the university terminated his employment.

On Friday, investigators from the FBI and Department of Homeland Security searched two homes in Bloomington and Carmel that belong to XiaoFeng Wang, an internationally recognized expert on cybersecurity.
