A Spanish court ruled on Tuesday to extradite Russian national Pyotr Levashov, accused by US authorities of malicious hacking, to the United States, according to a court document, according to the document obtained by Sputnik.

However, a source in the National Court later told Sputnik that the decision may be appealed at the plenary session of the National Court.

Levashov, 36, was detained in Barcelona at a US request in April. He was charged by the courts of several US states — Alaska, Michigan, Connecticut, as well as the District of Columbia.
