Delhi man jailed in US for illegal export of aviation parts to Russia
WASHINGTON: A Delhi-based businessman has been sentenced to 30 months in US federal prison for conspiring to illegally export controlled aviation components from Oregon to Russia, violating American export control laws, the Justice Department said.
Sanjay Kaushik, 58, was sentenced in Portland, Oregon, to 30 months in prison followed by three years of supervised release for his role in a scheme to ship sensitive aviation technology to Russian end users without required US government approvals, according to court records.
The US Attorney’s Office for the District of Oregon, the Justice Department’s National Security Division, and the Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Industry and Security announced the sentence.
US officials said the case involved deliberate efforts to evade export controls that protect national security.
