Large-scale fraud suspect extradited from Tbilisi to Tashkent
An Uzbek national who was on the international wanted list has been extradited from Georgia to Tashkent following a successful joint operation by the National Central Bureau (NCB) of Interpol in Uzbekistan and its foreign partners.
The individual had been placed on the international wanted list through Interpol channels for committing large-scale fraud. To locate and apprehend the suspect, the Uzbek NCB maintained constant information exchange and coordinated actions with the National Central Bureaus of several foreign countries.
As a result of these coordinated efforts with the Interpol National Central Bureau in Tbilisi, the fugitive was identified and detained within the territory of Georgia. Throughout every stage of the process – from the initial issuance of the international search warrant to the final execution of the extradition – the Interpol National Central Bureau in Uzbekistan provided the necessary organizational, legal, and informational support.
Following the approval of the extradition request by the Ministry of Justice of Georgia, which was submitted by the Prosecutor General’s Office of Uzbekistan, the suspect was escorted to Tashkent. The transfer was carried out with the direct participation of officers from the Interpol National Central Bureau in Uzbekistan. The individual has now been brought back to face further procedural actions and will be held accountable in accordance with the legislation of Uzbekistan.
