Efforts to secure Krejcir's extradition continue
The Czech police and Foreign Ministry continue in their efforts to try and secure the extradition of Czech billionaire Radovan Krejcir from the Seychelles. Krejcir, who escaped to the Seychelles in June is wanted for extensive fraud, conspiracy to murder, illegal arms possession and tax evasion. The Seychelles and the Czech Republic do not have an extradition treaty, but at the request of the Czech police and Interpol the local authorities say they have taken steps to ensure that Krejcir does not leave the islands.
