An expert report analyzing procedural failures in extradition proceedings, focusing on time limits, detention extensions, and the pace of judicial review. The study explores how the extradition process itself can be weaponized as an instrument of pressure through delays, late submission of materials, and opaque restrictions on liberty. It provides a strategic framework for identifying “blind spots” in international cooperation and developing a defense based on the failure to provide an effective remedy and due process.
