加勒比司法法院周三裁定,美国对圭亚那反对党领导人阿兹鲁丁·穆罕默德及其父亲纳扎尔·穆罕默德的引渡程序可以继续进行1。两人此前向法院提起法律质询试图阻止该程序,但遭法院驳回。
阿兹鲁丁·穆罕默德现为圭亚那议会第二大党的领导人,并于今年一月当选反对党领袖1。美国去年在佛罗里达州对其提出黄金走私和洗钱指控1。根据美国财政部的指控,两人涉嫌走私超过1万公斤黄金进入美国,并逃税超过5000万美元1。两人自去年被捕后一直获得保释1。
法院首席法官温斯顿·安德森表示:"这当然是一桩复杂的案件"1。纳扎尔·穆罕默德对判决结果表示不服,称这份长达256页的判决书"基于律师的意见,事情尚未完全落定""我们会一直抗争到底"1。
The Caribbean Court of Justice ruled on Wednesday that the United States extradition proceedings against Azruddin Mohamed, leader of Guyana's second-largest parliamentary party, and his father Nazar Mohamed can continue.1 The two men were indicted in Florida on gold smuggling and money laundering charges and had challenged the extradition process through the regional court, but their legal challenge was rejected.1
According to the US Treasury Department, the pair allegedly smuggled more than 10,000 kilograms of gold into the United States while evading more than $50 million in taxes.1 Azruddin Mohamed was elected as opposition leader in January and leads the second-largest party in Guyana's Parliament.1 Both men have remained out on bond since their arrest last year.1
Justice Winston Anderson described the case as "a complicated matter" in the ruling.1 Nazar Mohamed stated that the 256-page judgment leaves room for further action, saying, "Based on what lawyers say, all is not lost as yet. ... We will be fighting all the way."1
