Lim faces:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>one count of conspiracy to defraud the U.S.<\/li>\n<li>one count of smuggling<\/li>\n<li>one count of illegal export of goods from U.S. to Iran<\/li>\n<li>one count of making false statements to the U.S. government<\/li>\n<li>one count of making false statements to law enforcement<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Assistant Attorney Carlin:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The indictment alleges that Lim conspired to defraud the U.S. and defeat our export controls by sending U.S. -origin components to Iran instead of their stated final destination of Singapore. Several of those components ultimately ended up in unexploded improvised devices in Iraq. This case, including the successful extradition of Lim, demonstrates our efforts to vigorously pursue and bring to justice those who threaten our national security.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>From ICE Director Saldana:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Improvised explosive devices (IEDs) have injured or killed thousands of military service members overseas. The U.S.-made products Lim is accused of illegally exporting were found in several of the devices used against America&#8217;s warfighters. After a long investigative process, Lim is back on U.S. soil to answer for his actions.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>To read entire press release: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.justice.gov\/opa\/pr\/singapore-man-extradited-united-states-connection-plot-involving-exports-iran-us-components\">DOJ<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Singapore Man Extradited to United States in Connection with Exporting Plot to Iran A citizen of Singapore, Lim Yong Nam, aka Steven Lim, 42, has been extradited from Indonesia to stand trial at the District of Columbia on charges of taking part in a conspiracy that allegedly caused thousands of radio frequency modules to be [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":2491,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_s2mail":"yes","_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":""},"categories":[6,17,5],"tags":[50,71,48],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.0 -
