SFO secures prison sentence for aircraft engine parts fraud

The Serious Fraud Office (SFO) has secured a 4‑year 8‑month prison sentence for Jose Alejandro Zamora Yrala, director of AOG Technics, after uncovering a £39.3m global aircraft engine parts fraud involving over 60,000 parts sold with forged Authorised Release Certificates (ARCs), risking public safety and disrupting the aviation industry. The SFO found that between January 2019 and July 2023 Zamora doctored genuine ARCs, invented fake employees and created false memos, with most parts linked to the CFM56 engine. The operation collapsed when Safran identified a fake certificate, prompting safety alerts from UK, US and EU aviation authorities and grounding planes worldwide. Zamora pleaded guilty to fraudulent trading in December 2025, with the SFO stating the scheme posed serious safety risks.
