阿米尔·巴拉提在6月26日于波德戈里察被捕后，由黑山警方押解。他拥有伊朗和土耳其国籍。
一名欧洲国家警方消息人士和一位知情人士周四透露，一名被控参与黑客计划的伊朗男子已从黑山被引渡至美国，面临刑事指控。该黑客组织入侵了150多家美国大学和企业，窃取了价值超过30亿美元的数据。
40岁的阿米尔·巴拉提同时拥有土耳其国籍，预计将在纽约南区美国联邦地区法院面临电信诈骗和计算机欺诈指控。今年8月，他与另外16名伊朗国民一同在一份补充起诉书中被起诉。黑山警方应美国联邦调查局（FBI）请求于6月将其逮捕。
在美国与伊朗持续交战之际，美国执法部门正试图削弱伊朗的网络作战能力，巴拉提的引渡对美方而言是一则利好消息。被控的伊朗黑客鲜少会出现在美国法庭上。
巴拉提及其同案被告被控参与了一场始于2013年的长期黑客行动，从全球各地的大学和企业窃取数据，入侵了美国、欧洲及其他地区约8000名教授的电子邮箱账户。根据起诉书，黑客所 targeting 的学术数据和知识产权，给美国大学造成了约34亿美元的“获取和使用成本”。
美国有线电视新闻网（CNN）未能联系到巴拉提的律师。
被指为受害者的企业包括HBO电视网，其母公司华纳兄弟探索公司也是CNN的母公司。
根据美国法庭文件，巴拉提据称协助追踪大学黑客攻击的进展，并为私营部门创建“目标名单”。美国司法部透露，被入侵的美国私营企业包括11家科技公司和2家国防承包商。
除巴拉提外，该阴谋的其他成员据称还入侵了美国劳工部、联邦能源监管委员会以及联合国。
检察官表示，许多入侵行动都是代表伊朗伊斯兰革命卫队实施的。
纽约南区美国联邦地区法院发言人周四拒绝就巴拉提的引渡事宜置评。
在与美国和以色列交战的七个月里，伊朗庞大的黑客能力为德黑兰提供了威胁美国关键基础设施的手段。在此期间，伊朗被视为多起网络攻击的主要嫌疑人，包括针对美国供水系统、加油站油罐读数器、一家大型医疗设备制造商以及联邦调查局局长卡什·帕特尔私人电子邮箱的攻击。

An Iranian man accused of being part of a hacking scheme that breached more than 150 US universities and companies while targeting data worth over $3 billion has been extradited from Montenegro to the US to face criminal charges, police in the European country and a person familiar with the case said Thursday.
Amir Barati, 40, is expected to face wire and computer fraud charges in the US Southern District of New York, where he and 16 other Iranian nationals were charged in a superseding indictment in August. Montenegrin police arrested Barati, who is also a Turkish citizen, in June at the request of the FBI.
Barati’s extradition is welcome news for US law enforcement as it tries to blunt Iran’s cyber capabilities during the US’ ongoing war with the country Accused Iranian hackers rarely see a US courtroom.
Barati and his co-defendants are accused of participating in a yearslong campaign that began in 2013 to steal data from universities and companies around the world, breaching about 8,000 email accounts belonging to professors in the US, Europe and elsewhere. The academic data and intellectual property the hackers targeted cost the US universities about $3.4 billion to “procure and access,” according to the indictment.
CNN was unable to reach a lawyer for Barati.
One of the companies allegedly victimized included the network HBO, a subsidiary of CNN’s parent company Warner Brothers Discovery.
Barati allegedly helped track the progress of the hacks of universities and helped create “targeting lists” for the private sector, according to US court documents. Among the breached private US companies were 11 tech firms and two defense contractors, according to the Justice Department.
Other members of the conspiracy aside from Barati allegedly hacked the Department of Labor, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission and the United Nations.
Many of the intrusions were conducted on behalf of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, according to prosecutors.
A spokesperson for the US Southern District of New York declined to comment on Thursday about Barati’s extradition.
Iran’s sizable hacking capabilities have offered Tehran a way to threaten US critical infrastructure during seven months of war with the US and Israel. Over that time, Iran has been a key suspect in cyberattacks on US water systems, tank readers at gas stations, a major medical device maker and FBI Director Kash Patel’s private email account.
