Former US Marines Corp pilot Daniel Duggan is facing extradition to the United States for allegedly breaking US arms control law after he trained Chinese pilots.
Duggan denies the allegations that he broke US arms control laws. He has been in an Australian maximum security prison since his arrest in 2022, after returning from working in Beijing. Su Bin, arrested in Canada in 2014, pleaded guilty in 2016 to theft of US military aircraft designs by hacking major US defence contractors. He is listed among seven co-conspirators with Duggan in the extradition request.
Messages retrieved from Su Bin's electronic devices show he paid for Duggan's travel from Australia to Beijing in May 2012, according to extradition documents lodged by the US with the Australian court. ASIO and the US Naval Criminal Investigative Service did not respond to Reuters requests for comment on the meetings."An ASIO officer suggested that while carrying on his legitimate business operations in China, Duggan may be able to gather sensitive information," his lawyer wrote.
