Minsk decided to extradite  Lapshin to Azerbaijan

Prosecutor General's Office of Belarus has decided to extradite to Azerbaijan  the blogger Alexander Lapshin, citizen of Israel and Russia.  Relevant decree issued deputy public prosecutor A. Stuk  on January 17, but it became known only three days later.

Catherine,  Lapshin’s girlfriend wrote on social  network ,  that  a notice of the impending extradition was sent to the Israeli consulate in the evening on January 18. According to her, the Prosecutor General's appeal against the decision is possible within 10 days. Lapshin was detained in Minsk on December 15,  by the international wanted list at the request of Azerbaijan.

Baku demands his extradition, because the blogger visited Nagorno-Karabakh, campaigned in favor of the separatists, and called on the international community to recognize the independence of " the Nagorno Karabakh Republic". In addition, Lapshin illegally  entered Azerbaijan on a false passport Ukrainian. So far, while  the question on his extradition is being solved , Lapshin is kept in the Minsk jail. -02D-
