💨 Abstract

A Dutch court extended the detention of German Aksenov, a former employee of ASML, a major Dutch computer chip equipment maker, accused of stealing corporate secrets and selling them to a Russian buyer. Prosecutors alleged that Aksenov had contact with Russia's FSB intelligence service, but did not elaborate on the nature of the contact. Aksenov denied any wrongdoing and complained about his jail conditions. The case will be heard again in April.
