Spain's National Court postponed the discussion on the issue of extradition of crime boss Zakhar Kalashov to Georgia yesterday.
Kalashov faces 18 years in prison in Georgia. A Georgian court has sentenced Kalashov in absentia for crimes including the 2000 abduction of a US citizen, whose whereabouts are still unknown.
He was extradited to Spain, where he spent four years in preventative custody before being sentenced to seven-and-a-half years for money-laundering.
The National Court rejected Kalashov's argument that his case would not be handled fairly in Georgia.
The court authorized the extradition on conditions including the permission of the United Arab Emirates.
