The extradition of Do Kwon, known as the figure behind the collapse of Terra Luna, has once again fallen into uncertainty in Montenegro. The Constitutional Court, upon reviewing an appeal filed by Kwon’s lawyers, has temporarily halted his extradition process. This decision suspends the previous ruling by the Montenegrin High Court, which granted the Minister of Justice the final authority to decide on Kwon’s extradition.
According to information published on the Constitutional Court’s website, the court announced that the extradition process has been postponed until a final decision is made. This development came after Kwon’s legal team submitted an appeal on September 25 against the High Court’s decision, which the court accepted. Dan newspaper reported that this appeal prevents Minister of Justice Bojan Božović from exercising his final decision on the extradition.
Following the postponement, the Montenegrin Ministry of Justice expressed a desire for the Constitutional Court to address the case swiftly and requested to be kept informed of future developments. Minister Božović had stated that he had made his decision regarding where Kwon would be extradited and that it would be announced by the end of the week. However, today’s announcement marks the third postponement of Kwon’s extradition, and this decision has been registered as Kwon’s sixth appeal.
Kwon’s extradition is set to be either to South Korea or the United States, but the latest delay has sparked significant reactions in the crypto world. In a ruling issued in September, the Montenegrin High Court stated that previous decisions by the High Court and the Court of Appeal in response to Kwon’s earlier appeals were legally flawed. This complex legal process adds further uncertainty regarding the charges Kwon faces.
It remains unclear how Kwon’s legal case will unfold and to which country he will ultimately be extradited. The crypto community is closely following the outcome of this ongoing process.
