Born Immigrant: Nuclear Proliferation

Global Community Dept: Mahmoud Yadegari was blinded by greed and was not trying to help Iran s nuclear program, but he could have caused great harm to the global community, Justice Cathy Mocha said Thursday, according to The Star. On July 6, the 37-year-old Iranian-born immigrant became the first Canadian ever convicted of breaking anti-nuclear proliferation rules under the United Nations Act and a Toronto businessman has been sentenced to four years and three months in jail for trying to send nuclear-embargoed gauges to Iran. After time is deducted for pretrial custody, he will serve another year and eight months. As reported in the news.
