Montenegrin official plans to extradite Do Kwon to the United States: Report


Terraform Labs co-founder Do Kwon will reportedly be extradited to the United States rather than South Korea to face criminal charges.

According to a Dec. 7 Wall Street Journal report citing people familiar with the matter, Justice Minister Andrej Milovic in Montenegro plans to grant U.S. officials’ request for extradition. Kwon was arrested in Montenegro in March and sentenced to four months in prison for using falsified travel documents but has also been charged in the U.S. and South Korea for his alleged role in the collapse of Terraform Labs.

Milovic reportedly said the announcement would be made public “in a timely manner”.

This is a developing story, and further information will be added as it becomes available.
