Former U.S. military pilot arrested in Australia listed same Beijing address as Chinese hacker -documents

A former U.S. military pilot arrested in Australia and facing likely extradition to the United States on undisclosed charges listed the same Beijing address as a Chinese businessman jailed in the United States for conspiring to hack U.S. defence contractors' computers, documents show.
