[SIZE=4]Russia asks to extradite oil tycoon Nevzlin, Dubov from Israel[/SIZE] Globes' correspondent 25 Jan 04 17:26
The Russian General Prosecutor's Office has filed an international extradition request for Leonid Nevzlin and Vladimir Dubov, senior shareholders in Russian oil company Yukos (RTS:YUKO). Nevzlin and Dubnov fled to Israel a few months ago. The General Prosecutor's Office issued two arrest warrants, one valid in Russia, and the second through Interpol.
Nevzlin and Dubov fled from Russia to Israel after Yukos CEO Mikhail Khodorkovsky was arrested on charges of fraud and tax evasion. He resigned from the company a few days after his arrest.
Following Khodorkovsky's resignation, Nevzlin apparently became the controlling shareholder in Yukos in terms of voting rights, after Khodorkovsky reportedly transferred his 44% voting rights in the company to Nevzlin [keeping control of Yukos in Jewish hands while Khodorovsky is under arrest ed. note].
If the report is true, Nevzlin, an Israeli citizen, has voting control of the world's fourth largest oil company, in terms of market cap, and one of the largest in terms of oil reserves. Simon Kukes replaced Khodorovsky as Yukos CEO.
Nevzlin recently received Israeli citizenship, but this would not prevent his extradition if an international warrant has been issued for his arrest, since the crime for which he is accused was committed before he became a citizen. He is therefore eligible for extradition.
Dubov, who is not Jewish, is also eligible for extradition.
Nevertheless, **in neither case is it clear whether Israel will respond to a request from Interpol, if one is submitted. **

"Dubov, who is not Jewish, is also eligible for extradition."
He may well get thrown to the wolves. Otherwise, Israel never extradites a Jew, not even for rape and murder....

YUKOS Chief Executive Officer Mikhail Khodorkovsky, etc. Why Bush went inot Afghanistan. The Taliban said "NO to the pipeline Khodorkovsky wants to connect to the Arabian Sea. They also forbade the propagation of poppies. BAAAD Taliban. Bush replaced them with his oil buddy, Hamid Karzai. [url]http://www.counterpunch.org/tomenron.html[/url] [url]http://english.pravda.ru/comp/2001/12/20/24062.html[/url] Dear Editor,
US newspapers are reporting the arrest of billionaire Mikhail Khodorkovsky of YUKOS Oil Co., on fraud, forgery, and other charges. Of course, they make no mention of his being part of the Jewish Mafia, or even the the politically correct "Russian" mafia. Nor do they mention the recent historic merger between two large oil companies - Yukos and Sibneft chaired by Roman Abramovich, another member of the mob.
I see a connection here to Afghanistan. Afghanistan lies geographically on the route of a planned pipeline from the Yukos Caucasian oil fields, to the seaport of Gwadar on the Arabian Sea. As more details surface, it becomes obvious that this savage incursion into Afghan territory has less to do with accused terrorist mastermind Osama bin Laden and more to do with Washington' s plans for oil and political hegemony in the Caspian region.
The Taliban became the fly in the ointment when the refused to allow the construction of this pipeline through Afghanistan, after Pakistan had approved of it. This came to light in Houston at a conference held for this endeavor on Dec. 7th 1997. Unocal invited a Taliban contingency to visit them in Houston, Texas, housed them in five-star hotels, and dined them at the home of a Unocal VP. Hamid Karzai, an old friend of the Bush family, represented Unocal. I think it is no coincidence that Karzai was appointed by Bush to Govern Afghanistan. At this conference, the Taliban also announced that henceforth, the cultivation of poppies for the drug trade was forbidden. Bad Taliban! Before the ban, Afghanistan was the number one supplier.
Perhaps this is an example of what Mahathir Mohamad, Prime Minister of Malaysia, properly noted that "... the Jews rule this world by proxy. They get others to fight and die for them.".
Could be.
