A Russian man accused by the United States of trafficking in a hacked database of online credentials will apparently evade American courts after the Russian government said it had succeeded in extraditing him.
Russian prosecutors said authorities in Kazakhstan will transfer the man, Nikita Kislitsin, to face charges related to an October 2022 hacking incident at an unidentified business. Russian newspaper Kommersant reported that the hackers behind the incident had issued an extortion demand of 550,000 rubles or approximately $6,000.
