Muneeb also pleaded to an additional count of accessing a protected computer without authorization, as well as making a false statement and obstructing justice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sohaib was sentenced to 24 months in prison; Muneeb was sentenced to 39 months. Both will also be under three years of supervised release after their prison terms are served.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Brothers used positions at government contractors to
