''Cases that have been assigned top priority, as is the Calovskis case, take a year at the most to review,'' she said.
Ziemele also emphasized that the ECHR does not rule whether a person is guilty or not, but whether their human rights are being observed.
As reported, Latvian government decided last week to extradite Latvian
cyber-crimes suspect Deniss
Calovskis to the United States. However, The ECHR accepted a petition filed by attorneys for Calovskis and temporarily halted Calovskis' extradition to the United States until his case is reviewed by the Strasbourg court.
