Former People's Deputy Dmitry Svyatash, who was sentenced in Ukraine to 12 years in prison, was arrested in Sweden, where he flew to a Stevie Wonder concert, Expressen reports. He was detained at the airport and detained at an immigration detention center. He tried to enter with a Ukrainian passport, but reportedly also has a Russian passport. The lawyer states that Sviatash's extradition to Ukraine is impossible because it contradicts European practice. In October 2023, the Supreme Court, in a separate case, ruled that extradition from Sweden to Ukraine during war was inconsistent with Article 3 of the European Convention. According to Radio Liberty, Sviatash was placed on the international wanted list in a new state security case, which is being discussed in court. In the past, lawyers managed to cancel his previous search through Interpol due to non-compliance with the rules.
