extradition is an act of international cooperation that consists of the delivery of a person, investigated, prosecuted or convicted of one or more crimes, to the country that claims him. It may be requested both for the purposes of investigating the investigation or criminal proceedings to which the person complained is responding (instructional extradition), or for the fulfillment of a sentence already imposed (executory extradition). It should be noted that the institution of extradition requires the decree of preventive detention or a definitive conviction of a custodial sentence and must be requested by the Judiciary.

The STF minister also requested the inclusion of the blogger's name on Interpol's wanted list – which has not yet occurred.
