Three convicted by NY jury over Russian export conspiracy
NEW YORK | BY JONATHAN STEMPEL
A federal jury in Brooklyn, New York on Monday convicted three former employees of a Houston-based company over their roles in a scheme to illegally export microelectronics to the Russian military, U.S. prosecutors said.
Alexander Posobilov, Shavkat Abdullaev and Anastasia Diatlova were convicted after a month-long trial of exporting and conspiring to export more than $30 million of microchips and other high-tech goods to Russia, including many destined for the military and intelligence agencies, U.S. Attorney Robert Capers said.
Posobilov was also convicted of conspiring to commit money laundering, Capers added.
All three defendants worked at Arc Electronics Inc, where Posobilov was procurement director, Abdullaev was shipping manager and Diatlova was a saleswoman.
