Injunction suspending extradition to Romania pending constitutional review

The German Federal Constitutional Court granted the constitutional complainant’s emergency motion, ordering the General Public Prosecution Office of Munich to prohibit the extradition and handover of the individual to Romanian authorities for up to six months pending the final decision on the complaint. The dispute arose from a planned transfer to a Contracting Party of the Council of Europe, where the applicant challenged the extradition as a violation of fundamental constitutional rights, necessitating interim protective measures to prevent irreversible legal consequences during the pendency of the proceedings. Relying on § 32 of the Federal Constitutional Court Act, the Court issued the injunction based on the apparent likelihood of success and the urgency of preventing the execution of the extradition order, thereby suspending the transfer while the merits of the case are examined.
