STOCKHOLM, June 12, 2023 :Sweden on Monday agreed to extradite to Turkey a man convicted of drug trafficking who also supported the pro-Kurdish PKK, a first since Stockholm’s NATO bid was stalled by Ankara. Turkey has accused Sweden of being a haven for “terrorists,” especially members of the PKK, and has asked Stockholm to extradite dozens of people.
The government has decided to “grant an extradition from Sweden regarding a 35-year-old Turkish citizen,” Justice Ministry official Ashraf Ahmed told AFP, adding that Turkey wants him to serve out a drug trafficking sentence. (AFP)
