Sweden detains former Ukrainian lawmaker Dmytro Sviatash and denies him entry
Swedish border police detained former Ukrainian lawmaker Dmytro Sviatash at Stockholm Arlanda Airport on October 22 and refused him entry. He is in custody while his lawyer opposes extradition to Ukraine and challenges his detention. Swedish authorities cited Poland's Schengen-wide re-entry ban, while his lawyer says the decision was politically motivated.
