Firtash being escorted out of the courtroom STOLRYLINE An Austrian judge has turned down a US extradition request for a Ukrainian oligarch suspected of paying millions of dollars in bribes to Indian officials. Judge Christoph Bauer said on Thursday the evidence presented by US legal officials was not sufficient to justify Dymitro Firtash's extradition. Court spokeswoman Christina Salzborn said the case was "also politically motivated." Firtash was indicted by a US grand jury two years ago for allegedly paying off the Indian officials through US banks in exchange for securing titanium mining rights in India. He was arrested a year ago in Vienna but posted bail of 125 million euros (nearly 140 million US dollars) shortly afterwards. Firtash earned millions in the natural gas trading sector under deposed pro-Russian Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovich. =========================================================== Clients are reminded: (i) to check the terms of their licence agreements for use of content outside news programming and that further advice and assistance can be obtained from the AP Archive on: Tel +44 (0) 20 7482 7482 Email: [email protected] (ii) they should check with the applicable collecting society in their Territory regarding the clearance of any sound recording or performance included within the AP Television News service (iii) they have editorial responsibility for the use of all and any content included within the AP Television News service and for libel, privacy, compliance and third party rights applicable to their Territory.
