    France extradites Armenian native to Russia on suspicion of crime

    MOSCOW Aug 28


    France is going to extradite Armenian native Karen Margarian to Russia
    at the Russian Prosecutor General's Office request.

    Margarian is suspected of inflicting serious harm to a resident of the
    Altai territory in 2000.

    The investigation has determined that Margarian several times fired an
    air rifle at a man and caused him numerous wounds in a village in the
    Altai territory in December 2000, the Prosecutor General's Office
    website said.

    Margarian was placed on the federal wanted list in November 2001 and
    on the international wanted list in July 2007. He was detained in
    France in August 2007.

    France granted the Russian Prosecutor General's Office request on
    Margarian's extradition in August 2009.

    The Interpol National Central Bureau under the Russian Interior
    Ministry told Interfax that Margarian would be delivered to Russia on
    Friday.

    This will be the 24th extradition to Russia in 2009 involving Russian
    National Central Bureau officers, it said.
