A man from B.C. is sitting in a federal jail in Seattle, charged with smuggling military technology from the U.S. to Pakistan. Mohammad Jawaid Aziz was arrested just over a week ago while trying to enter the U.S. at the Peace Arch crossing. The 67-year-old with Canadian-Pakistani citizenship is accused of using his company to obtain American tech for those in Pakistan who are linked to that country’s nuclear and missile programs. He’s been denied bail as a serious flight risk. The allegations have not yet been proven in court.
