The article reports on the extradition of a Russian suspect, Denis Alimov, from Bogotá to the United States. Alimov was captured in February 2026 while attempting to board a flight to Cartagena, Colombia. After seven months in custody, the Colombian Supreme Court’s Penal Chamber, led by Magistrate Gerson Chaverra, approved his extradition. The U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York has requested his transfer for alleged crimes including conspiracy to commit murder, kidnapping, providing materials to support terrorism, and financing terrorism. Authorities allege that Alimov organized a plot to assassinate or kidnap two foreign dissidents, using multiple identities to evade detection. The U.S. State Department confirmed these allegations, noting that Alimov offered $1.5 million to those involved in the scheme.
