Lee Jong

Lee Jong, Scientist, worked on the Chinese nuclear weapon program. Accused of falsifying research data and fired in 2001. Worked as a freelancer for Habib Marwan.

Lee sent e-mails to Marwan's associate Sabir Ardakani about the configuration and deployment of nuclear weapons. These e-mails were found by CTU when they recovered Ardakani's computer.

Fearing capture by the authorities, or being killed by Marwan, Lee took refuge at the Chinese Consulate in Los Angeles. He was forcefully removed from the consulate by Jack Bauer, suffering a shot in the back. Jack and the CTU Medical personnel were forced to sacrifice the life of Paul Raines, who was already in surgery, to save Lee. When Lee regained consciousness, he pointed CTU in the direction of the factory where Marwan was based.


 * Lee Jong was played by Peter Chin.
