The Montenegro Court of Appeals Revokes Extradition Agreement for Former TerraForm Labs CEO Do Kwon
In a surprising turn of events, the Montenegro Court of Appeals has revoked its agreement to extradite former TerraForm Labs CEO Do Kwon. This decision comes after the High Court of Podgorica initially approved the extradition in December. However, Kwon’s lawyers filed an appeal, allowing him to remain in Montenegro while the appellate court reviewed the case.
According to a statement released by the court, it found that the original decision to extradite Kwon was marred by significant violations. The wording of the decision was incomprehensible, lacked decisive facts, and provided unclear reasons. Additionally, the lower court disregarded the order of arrival for extradition requests, suggesting that South Korea had made its request first.
