A clothing and goods wholesaler is being sentenced to over three years in federal prison for importing counterfeit United States military uniforms and gear, and putting soldiers at risk around the globe.
The U.S. Attorney's Office in Rhode Island announced the sentence Thursday against Ramin Kohanbash of Brooklyn, New York.
The feds say Kohanbash directed the development and manufacture of 20-million-dollars' worth of Chinese-made items which were passed off as "Made in America."
The Justice Department says among the victims was a Rhode Island company which endured significant damage to its relationships with longstanding military clients.
