Extradition Case Could Shed Light on Corporate Espionage
Briefly

In a high-profile extradition case, private investigator Amit Forlit was approved for extradition to New York from the U.K. to face charges related to the hacking of environmental groups. He claims to have acted on behalf of ExxonMobil, which denies any knowledge of his actions. Notably, the targets of his alleged hacking include descendants of John D. Rockefeller, highlighting the rising tensions between fossil fuel companies and environmental groups. The outcomes, including potential trials and investigations involving firms like DCI Group, are anticipated in the coming months.
Precisely who knew what and at whose behest Forlit was working are details that will come out if a trial takes place.
A spokesperson for ExxonMobil denied knowledge of Forlit's actions, stating, "If there was any hacking involved, we condemn it in the strongest possible terms."
