In theory, a reasonable suspicion is established by the prosecution, and approved by a judge, prior to a warrant being issued. This is often further reviewed, by a judge, prior to the extradition request.
I make no claims about this specific case, but that's how it's supposed to work. There have been cases of unlawful renditions, but this doesn't appear to be that and those matters don't usually show up in court. It's not perfect, but reasonable suspicion is what warrants are based on.
- quuquuquu 9y agoI don't necessarily disagree with what you said, but the variable "reasonable" here is of course up for debate, since suspicion is very easy to have. We don't know the specifics, yes, but the evidence presented in these types of cases is not exactly compelling. MalwareNews kid made a tweet about some malware. The Temple professor who was also a Chinese national was wrongfully arrested while "trying to flee the USA with trade secrets." He is now suing the FBI. BTC-E guy was snatched up in Greece after traveling from Russia for vacation. We don't know the details, but presumably if he really thought he was a truly wanted cyber criminal, he would have never left. And Gottfrid Svartholm was extradited from Cambodia to Sweden, without an extradition treaty!!!! All so he could be tried for copyright crimes against US corporations. So, for these reasons, I am hesitant to say that this Chinese guy in particular without a doubt is guilty, just because he was arrested (snatched up.)
