Montenegro Supreme Court Decision Paves Way for US Extradition of Do Kwon

黑山最高法院的裁決為美國引渡 Do Kwon 鋪平了道路

In a significant development, Montenegro's Supreme Court has overturned previous decisions to extradite Terraform Labs Pte. Ltd.'s co-founder, Do Kwon, to South Korea.

Kwon, a crypto industry figure, has been detained in Montenegro since March 2023 after being apprehended for using a counterfeit passport. His legal team has persistently advocated for his extradition to South Korea, citing the country's more lenient sentencing guidelines for white-collar offenses compared to the United States.

加密貨幣行業人物 Kwon 自 2023 年 3 月因使用假護照被捕後一直在黑山被拘留。他的法律團隊一直主張將他引渡到韓國，理由是韓國對白領犯罪的量刑準則比美國更寬鬆。

A source familiar with the matter revealed to Bloomberg in late February that the government intends to approve Kwon's extradition to the US.
