| Engineer gets 32 years for military secrets sale |
| 2011-01-25 |
| A former B-2 stealth bomber engineer was sentenced to 32 years in prison Monday for selling military secrets to China in the latest of several high-profile cases of Chinese espionage in the U.S. Chief U.S. District Judge Susan Oki Mollway said Noshir Gowadia, 66, would likely be in his late 80s by the time he is released if he gets credit for good behavior in prison. "He broke his oath of loyalty to this country," Mollway said. "He was found guilty of marketing valuable technology to foreign countries for personal gain." Gowadia was convicted in August on 14 counts, including communicating national defense information to aid a foreign nation and violating the arms export control act. |
