Kazakhstan to extradite Russian cyber expert to Moscow despite US requests

Posted on December 22, 2023 by Dissent

Daryna Antoniuk reports:

Kazakhstan will reportedly extradite a prominent Russian cybersecurity expert to Moscow after refusing to send him to the U.S.

Nikita Kislitsin, who was detained in Kazakhstan earlier in June at the request of the U.S., will face hacking and extortion charges in his home country, according to Moscow’s Prosecutor General’s Office.

There was no official confirmation from Kazakhstan at the time of writing. In October, the Kazakh prosecutor’s office said that Kislitsin’s extradition decision could take up to one year to make. The agency hasn’t responded to a request for comment.
