FOREIGN MINISTRY AGAIN DEMANDS GEORGIA EXTRADITE CHECHEN MILITANTS
By empty (10/10/2002 issue of the CACI Analyst)
The Foreign Ministry has addressed a note to Georgia demanding the immediate extradition of eight suspected Chechen militants, ministry spokesman Aleksandr Yakovenko told Interfax. Georgia sent five Chechens to Moscow last week but suspended the extradition of eight more at the request of the European Court of Human Rights, to which the detained Chechens had appealed. Yakovenko said that at his talks in Chisinau on 6 October with President Vladimir Putin, Georgian President Eduard Shevardnadze promised that the eight Chechens would be extradited to Russia.Visit also
