MOSCOW (UrduPoint News / Sputnik - 16th September, 2019) Russia's top court has ruled that a 14-year prison sentence for Pole Marian Radzajewski who attempted to obtain secret defense technology was legitimate, the Russian Federal Security Service (FSB) said Monday.

"The Supreme Court of the Russian Federation, after considering the appeal and the defense's arguments, considers the decision of the Moscow City Court on the Polish citizen lawful and justified," the FSB said.

The court decided that there was enough evidence to prove that Radzajewski had been trying to find secret elements of the S-300 missile system in a bid to smuggle them to Poland.
