He has been in an Australian maximum security prison since his 2022 arrest.
Former US Marines Corp pilot Daniel Duggan is facing extradition to the United States for allegedly breaking US arms control law after he trained Chinese pilots.
The lawyer’s filing supports Reuters reporting linking Duggan to convicted Chinese defence hacker Su Bin. The case will be heard in a Sydney court in May, two years after his arrest in rural Australia at a time when Britain was warning its former military pilots not to work for China. Although Su Bin “may have had improper connection to agents, this was unknown to our client”, Duggan’s lawyer wrote.AVIC was blacklisted by the US in 2023 as a Chinese military-linked company.
The Australian Security Intelligence Organisation and US Navy criminal investigators knew Duggan was training pilots for AVIC and met him in Australia’s Tasmania state in December 2012 and February 2013, his lawyer wrote.
