Cyprus Court of Appeal Approves Extradition of Russian Citizen Artur Petrov to the US

Background

The Court of Appeal in Nicosia approved the extradition to the US of Russian citizen Artur Petrov, who was arrested in Cyprus in August 2023 at the request of US law enforcement authorities.

The judges thus overturned the decision of the lower court.

Comment by lawyer Valentina Roks

The case of Artur Petrov and his possible extradition to the US may go through appeals to the Supreme Court and the European Court of Human Rights. The process may drag on, but it has a chance of success, especially given earlier ECHR decisions in similar cases.
