Do Kwon Clinches Extradition Decision From Court
The Montenegro Appeals Court has rejected a Montenegro high court’s decision to extradite Terra founder Do Kwon to the U.S. or South Korea.
Kwon was arrested and sentenced to prison in Montenegro for falsified official documents.
The U.S. and South Korea have requested his extradition to face criminal charges related to Terraform Labs’ collapse in May 2022.
The Podgorica High Court ruled that the legal prerequisites for Kwon’s extradition were met, but the Appeals Court rejected the decision due to the investigating judge’s failure to hear Kwon’s case regarding the U.S. extradition request.
