- walshemj 12y agothe Maldives are part of Interpol so I suspect that honouring that organisations constitution is the legal justification "1.To ensure and promote the widest possible mutual assistance between all criminal police authorities within the limits of the laws existing in the different countries"
- Amezarak 12y agoKudos to you, recent news indicates you were exactly right. >President Abdulla Yameen denied a claim by Moscow that the United States had abducted Roman Seleznev from the Maldives and taken him to the American territory of Guam. >Yameen told reporters that Maldives police, acting on an Interpol arrest warrant, had moved against 30-year-old Seleznev during the weekend. “>No outsider came here to conduct an operation,” Yameen said here last night. “No officials from another country can come here to arrest anyone. >“The government has the necessary documentation to prove it,” he said, adding that he has asked his foreign minister to explain the situation to her Russian counterpart. http://www.therakyatpost.com/world/2014/07/10/maldives-denies-us-kidnapped-russian-credit-card-fraudster/ http://www.therakyatpost.com/world/2014/07/10/maldives-denie...
- Amezarak 12y agoThe lack of a formal extradition treaty doesn't mean that extradition can't happen. It just means there's no existing formalized processes and agreements in place. You can still be extradited, or the government might give a foreign government permission to arrest you, or any of a hundred other scenarios. There's nothing "shady" about it.
