Alabama resident Ray Hunt, also known as Abdolrahman Hantoosh, pleaded guilty to conspiring to illegally export U.S.-origin goods to Iran. Beginning in 2015, Hunt used his company, Vega Tools, to send industrial equipment for Iran’s oil, gas, and petrochemical industries without proper authorization. Hunt lied to shipping companies about the value of the goods and transshipped them through Turkey and the United Arab Emirates to evade U.S. sanctions.
