The FBI arrested a Turkish-U.S. dual citizen by the name of Gokhan Gun on Friday, after he allegedly attempted to flee the country with copied secret and classified documents, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office.
“Between May 10 and Aug. 7, Gun allegedly printed over a dozen documents marked classified at the time of printing,” the Eastern District of Virginia U.S. Attorney’s office wrote in their affidavit.
Gun, 50, of Falls Church, Virginia, worked as an electrical engineer and wireless communications specialist for the Joint Warfare Analysis Center since September of last year. His work, as described by the center, was to create “innovative precision network conventional targeting options,” according to the Washington Post.
