It is reported by RIA Novosti with reference to the lawyer of the detainee Elena Taranova.

As the lawyer clarified, the extradition of a Russian citizen to the United States has already been opened. According to her, she currently does not have access to the case file.

“So far, the Spanish court has only adopted a resolution confirming the participation of a lawyer in the process. The only documents that the defense has are a short description of the criminal actions imputed to him, with which my client does not agree, ”she said.

The lawyer did not say the name of her client, nor did she talk about the essence of the charges against him.

Earlier, the Russian Embassy in Madrid reported the detention at the Valencia airport of a Russian at the request of the United States.
