Let me see if this rings any bells : a guy finds his way into a foreign governments' military IT structure, extracts data and sells it off.

So, if that other guy is supposed to be extradited and brought to trial in said foreign country because of the horrendous damage he did, then this guy might as well hang himself now and be done with it.
