Why didn't the FBI ask for an extradition to the UK? If the case was solid they should use the proper channel to deal with foreign (supposed) criminals.
When you use this strategy, you deprive the arrested of the right he would have in his country and you add the crazy cost to defend yourself in a US court. So it's possible that the case is not that solid or need some Parallel construction. It's pure speculation but it seems fishy to me.
I can understand the use of shenanigans to arrest previous dictators or very powerful crime lords as a last resort for Justice but here it seems very unfair.
I think we may see a drop of attendee to US conference and/or a drop in tourism.
