A pair of Los Angeles convicts who escaped to a European life of luxury under fake names after running a pandemic fraud ring were extradited Thursday from Montenegro to the United States, Montenegrin authorities said.
Agents from the U.S. Marshals Service took custody of fugitives Richard Ayvazyan and Marietta Terabelian at the airport in Podgorica, the capital of Montenegro, local police said.
The couple, who abandoned their three teenage children at the Tarzana mansion they bought in part with stolen COVID relief funds, were captured in February in the small mountainous nation just up the Adriatic coast from Greece.
They had flown there in a private jet using forged Mexican passports and were living under false identities in a seaside villa with a pool on the scenic Bay of Kotor.
