An Argentine appeals court has upheld an international arrest order for Credit Suisse Group AG executive David Mulford for failing to testify in a probe on the events leading to the country’s 2001 debt default, court documents show.
A three-judge panel in Buenos Aires said Feb. 7 that Judge Marcelo Martinez de Giorgi’s Sept. 3 ruling requesting Interpol assistance in locating and extraditing Mulford in connection to the probe is valid and must proceed, according to a copy of the ruling filed to Argentina’s court information system. The judges said the appeal signed by Mulford’s lawyer was “inconsistent.”
