According to BlockBeats, on August 1, the Montenegrin Court of Appeal upheld the ruling that Terraform Labs Pte. co-founder Do Kwon should be deported to South Korea, rejecting the suggestion that he should be deported to the United States. Thursday's ruling is the latest in a series of rulings in Montenegro, which has been facing dual requests from the United States and South Korea to extradite Do Kwon. The Podgorica court statement said that no one appealed the ruling.

The ruling also upheld the fast-track extradition procedure previously issued by another Montenegrin court. Do Kwon's lawyer said Montenegro will arrange the extradition with the assistance of Interpol and hopes that the extradition can be completed "as soon as possible."
