At 9:30 am Thursday, the Sofia Appellate Court will hold a sitting on Chervenkova's extradition case.
"The United States has withdrawn its request for the extradition of Ms. Gergana Ilieva Pavlova Chervenkova, who is charged in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York with federal narcotics and fraud offenses," the US Embassy in Bulgaria said in a statement.
The revocation came on grounds of new information received by the US prosecution.
