A former Nikola Corp. contractor whose allegations of fraud at the electric truck maker helped spur a criminal investigation told a federal jury he made $600,000 off a short seller’s report on the company.

Paul Lackey, an engineer at the electric-drive systems company EVDrive that did contract work for Nikola, was testifying under questioning by the defense in the criminal trial of Nikola founder Trevor Milton. He said he gave short seller Hindenburg Research information in exchange for a share of its profits from shorting the company’s shares.

The US alleges that Milton, 40, lied to investors again and again to make Nikola look better than it was and pump up the stock. The defense has called the case “a prosecution by distortion.”

Business Maverick: SA retail trade sales surge year-on-year in July, outlook remains bearishSouth African retail trade sales surged 8.6% in the year to July, Statistics South Africa said on Wednesday.

On a monthly basis, sales were basically flat and the outlook is hardly upbeat.
