Spanish High Court Authorizes Extradition of John McAfee to the US: Report
The Spanish High Court authorized the extradition of John McAfee, a software magnate-turned-crypto-bull, to the U.S. where he faces tax fraud charges, according to a Reuters report.
McAfee, 75, was arrested at Barcelona’s airport in October on allegations of tax evasion, according to the U.S. Department of Justice.
McAfee said during an extradition hearing this month that accusations against him were politically motivated.
Spanish prosecutor Carlos Bautista called McAfee a tax dodger and dismissed the allegation of political motivation, Reuters said.
