Czech authorities extradited two Ukrainians to the United States, who were part of an international group of cybercriminals.
This was announced by the speaker of the National Center for Combating Organized Crime in the Czech Republic Yaroslav Ibegei.
According to law enforcement officers, the Ukrainians were detained back in February 2020. The perpetrators were identified in collaboration with the US Federal Bureau of Investigation.
Ukrainian citizens are suspected of committing hacker attacks and money laundering. In early March, both suspects were extradited to the United States. According to Ibegei, they face up to 20 years in prison.
