They can't. There are laws in most countries that if country A does the right legal dances for extradition, then legally they must be extradited. What people are asking for is the government/politicians to somehow override the judicial or legal system, and ensure one legal thing doesn't happen.

And it's full of nuances - e.g. exceptions for political crimes which is probably highly relevant in this case.
