Moldovan citizens Gabriel Stati and Auren Marinescu suspected of funding the Chisinau riots have been extradited from Ukraine, Ukrainian Deputy Prosecutor General Oleksandr Shynalsky told Interfax-Ukraine.

"They are already in Moldova," he said.

Stati and Marinescu were seized in Odesa on April 9. Moldovan police wanted them "for actions aimed to seize power in violation of the Moldovan constitution". The riots in Chisinau occurred on April 6-7.
