This image provided by the U.S. Attorney, Southern District of New York shows a photo from a complaint document filed by SDNY that shows Takeshi Ebisawa handling a rocket launcher. Federal prosecutors say the leader of a Japan-based crime syndicate conspired to traffic uranium and plutonium from Myanmar in the belief that Iran would use it for nuclear weapons. Prosecutors said Wednesday, Feb. 21, 2024, that Ebisawa and his confederates showed samples of nuclear materials transported from Myanmar to Thailand to a Drug Enforcement Administration undercover agent posing as a narcotics and weapons trafficker who had access to an Iranian general.
