A former Queens building super convicted of scheming to sell weapons to Hezbollah terrorists got a big break yesterday from a judge who ruled that he doesn’t deserve to be punished as if he were a terrorist himself.
Manhattan federal Judge Robert Sweet said Patrick Nayyar, 49, would get 15 years behind bars when he’s sentenced in September, instead of the 30 he could have received with the “terrorism enhancement.”
Nayyar was busted in 2009 when he was caught in an FBI sting in which he and an alleged accomplice sold an informant a handgun, bullets and a truck they believed would be used to transport missiles.
