USTINOV'S ATTORNEYS APPEAL HIS EXTRADITION TO US FOR ARMS TRAFFICKING AND MONEY LAUNDERING

Mr. Ustinov, obviously unhappy with the court's ruling

Dimitry Ustinov, the fugitive Russian arms trafficker who made the mistake of flying into an airport in the Baltics, has, through his attorneys, filed an appeal of the Vilnius Regional Court order ordering his extradition to the US, to face arms trafficking and money laundering charges, which could result in his imprisonment for 20 years.  We will continue to monitor all developments in this case, including any new comments being issued by the Russian Government, and the final ruling by the Court of Appeal of Lithuania, when it is issued.
