U.S. Says Russia, Other Nations, Are Uncooperative on Cybercrime Investigations

Posted on November 25, 2018 by Dissent

Dennis Fisher reports:

A top United States law enforcement official called out Russia for not cooperating with cybercrime investigations on Russian citizens, and said the U.S. will continue to “identify nations that routinely block the fair administration of justice and fail to act in good faith”.

In a speech before the Interpol General Assembly on Sunday, Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein said the U.S. has extradited 95 Americans to other countries to stand trial, but said other countries are not reciprocating, particularly when it comes to cybercrime. Rosenstein pointed specifically to the case of Alexsey Belan, a Russian who is under indictment in the U.S. for several major attacks, including an intrusion at Yahoo. The U.S, has issued two arrest warrants for Belan, who was allegedly hiding somewhere in Europe. and Interpol also issued a Red Notice requiring law enforcement agents to arrest him in any country. But Belan eventually made his way back into Russia, where Russian intelligence recruited him, Rosenstein said, and had him target U.S. companies, including Yahoo.
