A letter submitted in conjunction with the Government's opposition indicated that the French Code of Criminal Procedure 'absolutely prohibits' the extradition of a French national.
This legal document, filed on December 30, 2020, details the Court's analysis of a renewed bail motion for a defendant, identified as Ghislaine Maxwell. The Court remains concerned about her substantial international ties and multiple citizenships, particularly her French citizenship, as a significant flight risk. The document weighs the defendant's offer to waive extradition rights from France and the UK against conflicting evidence, including a letter from the French Ministry of Justice stating French law prohibits extraditing its nationals and the defendant's own experts using uncertain language.
