The extradition case of Iranian engineer Mohammad Abedini Najafabadi has drawn international attention.

Arrested in Milan on December 16 at the request of the U.

S., Abedini faces terrorism charges.

His case is linked to journalist Cecilia Sala, detained in Iran since December 19, raising questions about diplomatic ties.

U.

S. authorities cited past cases, including that of Christos Panagiotakopoulos, a Greek-American accused of fraud, who evaded extradition after being released in Italy.

Abedini’s lawyer is fighting against extradition, citing concerns over his treatment.

The case highlights tensions in international law and the complexities of extradition agreements.
