The Australian Attorney-General’s Department has approved a request to extradite a former US Marine Corps fighter pilot to the United States where he faces charges of breaking US arms control laws by engaging in the training of Chinese pilots.
Arrested in Australia in October, Daniel Duggan, 54, is accused of money laundering and conspiracy to export defence services to China by instructing Chinese military pilots in how to land on aircraft carriers, according to a 2017 indictment unsealed by a US court in December.
Australia received an extradition request from the US for Duggan on December 9, the Attorney-General’s Department said on Thursday, and was required to make a decision by December 25 as to whether to formally accept the request.
