Runaway director to be returned to Belarus from Uzbekistan through Ukraine

A former director of Babruisk hydrolytic plant will be extradited to Belarus. He fled from his trial in 2004 and was announced wanted.

The fugitive has been found in Uzbekistan recently and the Office of General Prosecutor of this country has decided to extradite the Belarusian home. He will be delivered to Ukraine and then – to Belarus. BelaPAN notes that a permission of the Ukrainian authorities to transit the detained is being expected now.
