Alexey Brayman is one of seven defendants charged in a 16-count indictment, accused of participating an international scheme to transport American products to Russia through countries, in violation of federal law.
— A Russian man living in New Hampshire allegedly used his Merrimack home as a"transshipment point" to smuggle American-made military-grade equipment into Russia, part of a coordinated effort to evade U.S. export laws, federal prosecutors announced Tuesday.
The goods alleged to have been smuggled include"advanced electronics and sophisticated testing equipment" to be used in nuclear weapons development and other military and space-based military applications. Investigators say the items were repackaged and shipped from several"intermediate locations" once they reached Europe and Asia before they were ultimately sent to Russia.
The pipeline described in court papers allegedly began with companies in the Russian defense and technology industries making requests of Ippolitov for the American equipment, and he would then hand off the orders to Grinn and Skvortsovato to secure funding. Investigators say Livshits — who also established and managed numerous shell companies in the U.S. — didn't tell the U.S. companies how the equipment was to be used or that Russian companies were waiting to receive it.
Konoshchenok, a suspected Russian intelligence officer, is accused of smuggling numerous U.S.-made goods from Estonia to Russia, including dual-use electronics, military-grade tactical ammunition and other export-controlled items, the Justice Department said.
