| France has unsuccessfully attempted to obtain Gaydamak`s extradition from Israel. This has been declined by the Israeli judiciary on the grounds that the factual allegations could not be considered as an offence under the laws of the extraditing country (in this case, Israel) at the time that they were allegedly committed, this being an international prerequisite of extradition, and that other alleged offences, such as fiscal ones, are not extraditable by nature |
