However, more than 38,000 of these weapons were illegally transferred from the United States to Columbia. The illegal Colombia deal was exposed by the criminal complaint filed by Paul Russmann and J\u00fcrgen Gr\u00e4sslin in July 2014 for the German \u201cOutcry\u201d campaign to stop the arms trade. In spring 2019, the Kiel Regional Court sentenced leading SIG Sauer managers from the USA and Germany to suspended prison sentences and fined the company for around 11 million Euros. SIG Sauer has not accepted the verdict and filed and appeal with the German constitutional court.<\/span><\/p><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.2; margin-top: 14pt; margin-bottom: 14pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: italic; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">Compiled by J\u00fcrgen Gr\u00e4sslin\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.2; margin-top: 14pt; margin-bottom: 14pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: italic; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">Download the full chronology as well as supplemental documents below (only buttons with white text are currently available.
