Kim Dotcom: New Zealand to extradite internet mogul to the US | CNN (https://www.cnn.com/2024/08/15/asia/kim-dotcom-new-zealand-us-extradition-intl/index.html)
New Zealand is set to extradite internet mogul Kim Dotcom (https://www.cnn.com/2018/07/04/asia/kim-dotcom-new-zealand-extradition-intl/index.html) to the United States after the country’s justice minister gave his approval on Thursday.
Dotcom, who was born in Germany but has New Zealand residency, had been fighting his extradition to the US since 2012. He is facing charges relating to his file-sharing site Megaupload (https://www.cnn.com/2012/01/20/tech/web/what-is-megaupload/?iid=EL), which was shut down by the US government the same year.
New Zealand Justice Minister Paul Goldsmith has now signed an extradition order for Dotcom, according to a government statement issued Thursday, paving the way for his deportation.
“I considered all of the information carefully, and have decided that Mr Dotcom should be surrendered to the US to face trial,” Goldsmith said, according to the statement.
“As is common practice, I have allowed Mr Dotcom a short period of time to consider and take advice on my decision. I will not, therefore, be commenting further at this stage.”
A defiant Dotcom took to X, formerly Twitter, later on Thursday to write: “I love New Zealand. I’m not leaving.”
