Last month we posted regarding the conviction of five individuals for Russian trade sanctions offences by the Hamburg Regional Court.
It is being reported that the sentences have now been handed down.
Of the five individuals, one was given a custodial sentence of four and a half years, and two others were given custodial sentences of three years.
The final two defendants were given suspended sentences.
The offending concerned the shipment of electronic components valued at over EUR850,000 to Russia via third countries such as Hong Kong, China, Armenia and the UAE.
