A 49-year-old Bulgarian arrested by police in northern Greece in December following a U.S. warrant has been released on bail pending a court ruling on his extradition for sending sensitive electronic circuits to Russia, a government official said on Thursday.
Milan Dimitrov, who has denied any wrongdoing, was arrested on his way back to Bulgaria after a trip to the northern Greek city of Thessaloniki.
A Greek court this week postponed a hearing on the U.S. extradition request and decided to release Dimitrov on 5,000 euros bail on condition that he does not leave the country and appears at a police station regularly, the Athens News Agency said.
