U.S. to Provide Indian Government With Information on Cirrus Electronics
The Times of India newspaper reports that, in response to a request from the Government of India, the U.S. will send a team of Department of Justice officials to India with classified information on Cirrus Electronics. Cirrus Electronics was indicted by the U.S. Government in April 2007 on charges of illegally exporting electronic components to government entities in India without obtaining export licenses from the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) and the Directorate of Defense Trade Controls. BIS recently issued a Temporary Denial Order on Cirrus Electronics, its overseas affiliates and officers.
