Stage 2 details (arrest/ detention/ extradition):

In 2009 Abdulkhakov, Murodzhon was detained in Moscow and charged in participating in an extremist organisation of a religious, separatist or fundamentalist nature and  of smuggling extremist materials, storing and distributing extremist materials, using religion with the aim of disturbing public peace and order, slandering the regime and calling for the overthrow of the constitutional order of Uzbekistan. He was also accused of being a member of the banned organisation "jamaat". (ECHR,2012)

Uzbekistan requested his extradition on 30 December 2009. On 31 December 2009, 19 January and 3 February 2010 the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Federal Migration Service and the Federal Security Service informed the Prosecutor General that the applicant did not hold Russian citizenship and there were no other obstacles to his extradition to Uzbekistan. Detention repeatedly extended pending extradition processes, but eventually released in June 2011 after the 18 month maximum detention period expired. Appeals against the extradition order were repeatedly denied and the Supreme Court of Russia upheld the extradition order in March 2011. However, proceedings were halted by request of the ECHR pending its consideration of his complaints. (ECHR, 2012).
