U.S. arrests B.C. man, says he smuggled goods to Pakistan’s atomic bomb program
By Canadian Press on March 31, 2025.
SURREY, B.C. — U.S. authorities have arrested a 67-year-old man from Surrey, B.C., accusing him of smuggling banned goods to Pakistan’s military and its nuclear weapons program over more than 15 years.
The U.S. Department of Justice says in a Friday news release that Mohammad Jawaid Aziz was arrested trying to cross into the United States from British Columbia on March 21.
The department says Aziz, also known as Jawaid Aziz Siddiqui and Jay Siddiqui, smuggled “millions of dollars” worth of export-controlled items from the United States to Pakistan, including industrial workstations, a thermal conductivity unit and a centrifugal pump.
The partially unsealed indictment says Aziz owned and operated Surrey-based Diversified Technology Services and used the company “to procure U.S.-origin goods for prohibited entities in Pakistan” including the Pakistan Atomic Energy Commission.
None of the allegations have been proven in court.
The Department of Justice says Aziz, a dual citizen of Pakistan and Canada, remains in custody as of Friday, pending transfer to Minnesota where the investigation is largely based.
The indictment says Pakistan first tested a nuclear bomb in 1998, and the United States has imposed export restrictions on the country and entities linked to the Pakistani military programs since then.

Of course they did! Our Liberal government appeases terrorists and organized crime! They even let Hamas paid protesters burn out flag and scream death to Jews and death to Canada!
What do you expect? Someone has to protect the West! The Liberals even gave hundreds of millions to Hamas over the last few years, helping them build tunnels and buy arms while the Gazans starved when they funded UNRWA and continued to even after it was proven UNRWA infiltrated by Hamas and other terrorist groups, and several took part in the Oct 7th attack on innocent civilians in Israel, and that the terrorists were using hospitals, schools, mosques playgrounds, etc, as bases to hide along with their weapons.
Trudeau was great a flying around the world, writing cheques from the taxpayers bank account to many different entities, without tracking where the money went, while he bankrupt our own country. He spent more time on his aircraft then he did in Parliament and Carney won’t be much better!
They are Globalists, World Economic Forum puppets whose concerns are global and Canada has to bankroll them! Sad people do not take the time to really understand the truth but constantly follow the deception on social media!
