An Israeli court on Monday sentenced Mordechai Vanunu, who in 2004 completed an 18-year prison term for spilling nuclear secrets, to six more months behind bars after he violated a ban on speaking to foreigners.
An Israeli court Monday convicted nuclear whistleblower Mordechai Vanunu, who once served 18 years in jail, of violating a ban on leaving Israel and contacting foreign journalists.
Vanunu, who was released from prison in 2004, is due to be sentenced in two weeks, the spokesman said.
Vanunu served 18 years in jail for lifting the lid on the inner workings of Israel's Dimona nuclear plant to Britain's Sunday Times newspaper.
