| A FORMER army captain who stole rocket launchers from the Australian Defence Force has been ordered to pay back some of the $195,000 in superannuation contributions made by the Commonwealth.
The decision was handed down last week in the NSW Supreme Court under laws designed to keep public servants honest.
Shane Della-Vedova, who had served in the army over three periods between June 1978 and August 2008, was sentenced in 2008 to 10 years' jail for misappropriating 10 M1 single-shot rocket launchers between 2001 and 2003.
Nine of the rockets, later sold to a criminal with suspected terrorist links, are still missing. The weapons had been written off as old ordinance that had been destroyed from the army's stockpile.
