The district court of the Cyprus city of Larnaca refused the Russian Prosecutor General's Office to extradite Ivan Kolesnikov, an intern at the ALM Feldmans law office. He was accused in absentia of participating, under the leadership of Yukos Vice President Alexander Temerko, in the “free acquisition” of 19.7% of the shares of Yeniseineftegaz OJSC. The court ruled that the documents presented by the Prosecutor General’s Office “do not clearly indicate” Kolesnikov’s guilt.
