Lead #3What specific U.S. technology was smuggled, and how was it modified for use in IEDs?
Hossein Ahmad Larijani is wanted by the FBI for his role in an international smuggling conspiracy that illegally procured U.S. technology and incorporated it into improvised explosive devices used against American and coalition forces in Iraq between 2008 and 2010. Operating through companies in Singapore and Iran, Larijani coordinated with multiple co-conspirators to execute this scheme, though three have since been arrested, convicted, and deported while one remains at large. He has evaded capture since a federal arrest warrant was issued in September 2010 and is believed to be hiding in Southeast Asia or Turkey.
