Russian-owned Turnov company accused of exporting components for making nuclear weapons

A company based in Turnov twice tried to export parts that can be used in the production of nuclear weapons to Pakistan without a valid permit, news site Deník N reported on Wednesday. After the first attempt, the authorities simply warned the company that exporting such material from the European Union without a permit is not allowed. However, after customs officials discovered the second attempt, the company, NRB - New Rock Bits, and its executive, a woman of Russian origin, now stand accused of deliberately trying to export prohibited goods.
