MOSCOW, April 14 (RIA Novosti) - Italy will extradite to Russia on Monday a Moldovan accused of abduction and extortion and an Russian-Israeli national accused of smuggling works of art, the Russian bureau of Interpol said.
The bureau said Ion Fynaru, 27, accused of kidnap and extortion with the use of violence as member of an organized criminal group in 2003 in Moscow, was detained in Italy in 2006.
Mikhail Pombrik, 77, accused of smuggling art works, has been on the Interpol wanted list since 2004, and was arrested in Italy in May last year. He fled to Italy from Israel, where he previously served a two-year jail term for assault.
Fynaru and Pombrik will be extradited to Russia by a convoy made up of officers from the Russian Federal Penitentiary Service and Interpol's bureau in Russia.
