What charge was Puigdemont NOT able to be extradited for by the German court?

  • Rebellion

  • Sedition

  • Misuse of Public Funds

  • Theft

Answer

The German court's decision not to extradite Puigdemont for rebellion was based on the principle of dual criminality, which requires that an offense be considered a crime in both the requesting and requested countries. Since rebellion is not a crime under German law, the court determined that there was insufficient evidence to extradite Puigdemont on that charge.
