An extradition of Russian-Israeli blogger who has been sentenced to three years in jail in Baku is possible, his lawyer Eduard Chernin told RIA Novosti.

“Lapshin can serve his term in other country, in particular Israel, Russia and Ukraine, as he is a citizen of the mentioned countries. This is permitted by international conventions,” he said.

Lawyer described the verdict as “more than a good one”. The blogger was convicted on charges of public appeals to violent capture of authority and violation of law on infringement of Azerbaijan’s territorial.

The prosecutor earlier asked the court to sentence Lapshin for a period of 6.6 years in prison.

After his visits to Nagorno-Karabakh (Artsakh) in 2011 and 2012, blogger and journalist Alexander Lapshin—who is a citizen of Russia, Israel, and several other countries—was “blacklisted” by Azerbaijan.

Azerbaijan issued an international search for this famous blogger. On December 15, 2016, Lapshin was detained in the Belarusian capital city of Minsk, and was later extradited to Baku.
