Croatian police detained Volodymyr Zhuravlyov on a European arrest warrant. Germany issued the warrant for his alleged role in sabatoging the Nord Stream pipelines.

7. (SOUNDBITE) (German) SPOKESPERSON GERMAN FEDERAL PROSECUTOR GENERAL, INES PETERSON, SAYING:
"Based on the current state of the investigation, we believe he is one of the suspected divers who attached the explosives to the gas pipelines. The man was also briefly detained in Poland last September. But the Polish courts rejected extradition at that time."

0:29 - 0:51 
That ruling strained relations between Warsaw and Berlin. It       found that German authorities lacked jurisdiction and suggested the Nord Stream sabotage could be viewed as an act carried out by Ukraine in the course of defending itself in war. But now Germany might get a second chance at prosecuting Zhuravlyov. 

0:51 - 1:07
9. (SOUNDBITE) (German) SPOKESPERSON GERMAN FEDERAL PROSECUTOR GENERAL, INES PETERSON, SAYING:
"Courts in Croatia will decide on the extradition and its admissibility. The accused, of course, has the right to appeal. When such a decision can be reached always depends on the individual case. It's impossible to make any predictions about the time frame."

1:07 - 1:31
For his part, Zhuravlyov - who is a trained diver - has openly talked about his involvement in the Nord Stream attack. In fact the reason he was in Croatia was to consult Hollywood actor and director Sean Penn, who is there filming a movie about the Nordstream attack. Zhuravlyov's lawyer says his client is innocent.

1:31 - 1:45
- SOUNDBITE (Polish) Tymoteusz Paprocki, Lawyer for Volodymyr Schurawlew: "My client has in no way caused any damage or committed any criminal offence that would ultimately have resulted in damage to Germany’s critical infrastructure, as the German Government claims. Nothing has changed. He is innocent."

1:45 - 1:51
But innocent or guilty, before Zhuravlyov faces charges in Germany, Croatia's judicial system will first have to decide on his extradition.
