Not quite.

He got DM100,000 from Iraq for the plans - he was ordered to hand over
DM60,000 of this.  It's technically not a 'fine' as such - more like income
tax.

He was sentenced to five years in jail.  He'd already spent 15 months in
jail in Brasil and because this was in a foreign country and therefore more
stressful, it counts threefold.  Adding the three months he spent in jail
in Germany took it to four years, and first-time prisoners in Germany
usually only serve two-thirds of the sentence.

What is much more interesting to me is exactly what M.A.N was doing with
such plans in the first place.
