Another Japanese Company Accused of Export Control Violations
Japanese police have raided another company over export control concerns. Mitutoyo Corporation is suspected of exporting three dimensional measurement devices to China and Thailand without the required export licenses. Three dimensional measurement devices are used to spot deformations on a range of equipment and cannot be exported from Japan without an export license because they can also be used in uranium enrichment. There are reports that these items were of the same model that the International Atomic Energy Agency found when the agency inspected Libya's nuclear facilities in 2003 and 2004.
