Spain extradites suspect in Russia fatal club fire

Russia says Spain has extradited an official of a Siberian nightclub where a fire killed 156 people in 2009.
The General Prosecutor's office said Konstantin Mrykhin was sent to Russia Thursday. He was taken into custody in Barcelona last August.

Mrykhin was commercial director of a nightclub in the city of Perm which caught fire in December 2009 while packed with patrons.

The fire spread quickly through a plastic ceiling hung with decorative branches as desperate revelers tried to escape through a single door.

Mrykhin is charged with offering unsafe services causing the death of multiple people, for which he could face a sentence of 10 years in prison if convicted.
