Interim prohibition of surrender for criminal prosecution to Romania pending review of constitutional complaint

The Federal Constitutional Court granted a temporary injunction, ordering the suspension of the respondent’s surrender to Romanian authorities for criminal prosecution for up to six weeks pending the decision on the constitutional complaint, while explicitly stating that the execution of the surrender detention remained unaffected. The dispute concerned a request for interim relief against an extradition order, challenging the immediate enforcement of the surrender before the merits of the constitutional complaint could be reviewed. The decision rests on § 32(5) Sentence 1 of the Federal Constitutional Court Act (BVerfGG), which permits the court to issue an interim order without immediate reasoning, allowing for a deferred justification.
