“The trial of the case is scheduled for March 12. The delay is due to the fact that my client has not yet reached the court (San Francisco - RT ) and is still in prison in Nevada, ”said the detainee’s lawyer.

At the same time, the defense intends to appeal against the psychologist's conclusion about the state of Nikulin, since, according to Buch, it is not complete.

In late December, it became known about the extension of the period for conducting Nikulin's psychiatric examination in the United States.

Yevgeny Nikulin was arrested by Czech police at the request of the FBI in October 2016.

March 30, 2018 he was extradited to the United States.
