Ex-Worker of US Federal Contractor in Afghanistan Admits Stealing $104,000
22:26 GMT 26.04.2018 (Updated: 12:05 GMT 06.08.2022) WASHINGTON (Sputnik) - A former employee of a US defense contractor operating in Afghanistan admitted receiving $104,000 in illegal kickbacks, the US Department of Justice said in a press release.
"A former employee of a US government contractor in Afghanistan pleaded guilty today to foreign transportation of approximately $104,000 in stolen money," the release said on Thursday.
The defendant, Frantz Florville, took the money from his co-worker who was taking illegal payments from an Afghan contractor in return for providing assistance with getting subcontractors in the United States.
US authorities charged Florville on April 5, but a sentencing date has not been set yet.
According to prosecutors, Florville's co-worker has previously pleaded guilty and received a sentence of 21 months in prison.
