Calvin Ayre Travel Guide

According to Gambling911 it is probably a good idea if Calvin Ayre not visit any country with an extradition treaty with the US.  The cite rumors that he is already under secret indictment and you can pretty much assume that even if he wasn’t the DOJ would love to "speak" to him should he ever show his face in the US. 

But the US doesn’t always wait for the mountain to come to Mohammed.  When BetOnSports founder Gary Kaplan was nabbed he was in the Dominican Republic.  Rumors at the time is that although press reports stated he was arrested by Dominican police and turned over to the US, it was actually the FBI who nabbed Kaplan. 

So, here’s a list of countries that Gambling911 asserts have no extradition treaty with the US.

Algeria, Armenia, Bahrain, Bangladesh, Bophuthatswana, Brunei, Burkina Faso, Burundi, Cameroon, Cape Verde, Central African Republic, Chad, China (People’s Republic of China), Ciskei, The Comors, Cote d’ Ivoire, Djibouti, Equatorial Guinea, Ethiopia, Gabon, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Indonesia, Jordan, Korea (South), Kuwait, Laos, Lebanon, Madagascar, Mali, Marshall Islands, Mauritania, Micronesia, Maldova, Mongolia, Mozambique, Myanmar, Namibia, Nepal, Niger, Oman, Philippines, Principe and San Tome, Qatar, Russian Federation, Rwanda, Saudi Arabia, Senegal, Sudan, Syria, Togo, Tunisia, Uganda, Western Samoa, Yemen, Zaire, and Zimbabwe.

Hmmm . . . out of that list I think I would be able to hang my hat in China, Indonesia, South Korea, Laos, Micronesia, Philippines, Russian Federation, and Western Somoa.  Maybe a nice little hut on a white sand beach in Bali?

We don’t have an extradition treaty with South Korea? Odd. Maybe it’s a death penalty thing.
