Indian Spy?

Noshir Gowadia, 66, went on trial in April in Hawaii for what prosecutors allege was disclosing “vulnerabilities of our nation’s most important strategic assets” and helping China design a stealth cruise missile.

The India-born naturalized U.S. citizen is accused of shopping government secrets to China, as well as Switzerland, Israel and Germany to fund his lavish lifestyle. He has been held in jail since his October 2005 arrest as he was deemed a flight risk.

Gowadia, an aerospace engineer, worked at Northrop from 1968 to 1986 on the propulsion system for the B-2 stealth bomber.
Prosecutors plan to use Gowadia’s written confessions, including one in which he wrote, “On reflection what I did was wrong to help PRC (People’s Republic of China) make a cruise missile. What I did was espionage and treason.”

His attorney claims the statements were “coerced” from Gowadia, but the judge refused to block their presentation at trial.
