John Miller, a British citizen, has been indicted on charges of espionage and smuggling sensitive military technology to China. The US Justice Department is seeking his extradition from Serbia. Along with a Chinese accomplice, Miller is accused of conspiring to unlawfully export defense articles, including missiles and drones. The pair also allegedly plotted to intimidate a critic of China's leadership ahead of a significant APEC summit. If convicted, Miller faces extensive prison time for multiple serious offenses, including violations of the Arms Export Control Act.
The men solicited the procurement of US defense articles, including missiles and cryptographic devices, for unlawful export to China, carrying severe legal penalties.
Court documents revealed they discussed exporting a cryptographic device by concealing it in a blender, illustrating the lengths they would go to bypass export laws.
