Extradition of Russian hacker to U.S. blocked by court
None
The deportation of Russian hacker Alexei Burkov to the United States has been blocked following an appeal to issue a temporary injunction against it.
Minister of Justice Amir Ohana did not object to the temporary injunction.
The family of Naama Issachar who is imprisoned in Russia on drug charges, appealed the deportation order for Burkov in the hope a deal can be struck that will facilitate her release.
