Volodymyr Zhuravlyov was released after the judge delivered his verdict
A Polish judge has refused to extradite a Ukrainian citizen – suspected by Germany of sabotaging the Nord Stream gas pipelines in September 2022 – arguing that if Ukraine was responsible for the attack, then it was a "just" act.
Volodymyr Zhuravlyov, who was brought to Warsaw District Court in handcuffs, was detained in Poland last month on a European arrest warrant.
Judge Dariusz Lubowski ordered his release, after a ruling that was met with a ripple of surprise from the crowd in court and a smile from the man in the dock.
Mr Zhuravlyov, along with others, is suspected of planting explosives deep beneath the Baltic Sea on the pipelines leading from Russia to Germany.
Blame for the blasts, which crippled a long-controversial energy supply line from Russia to Germany, initially focused on Moscow until signs of Ukrainian involvement began to emerge.
Officials in Kyiv have repeatedly denied any role.
Extradition cases within the EU are usually quick and straightforward, but the Nord Stream case is proving to be very different.
Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk, whose government is a key ally of war-torn Ukraine, immediately posted on X that the ruling was right.
Inside the giant district courthouse in Warsaw, Judge Lubowski announced his decision to the suspect, his family and legal team – and a large cluster of TV cameras.
In a long and passionate speech, he said he was considering only the request to send Mr Zhuravlyov to Germany, not the substance of the case itself. But he was clear that the context of the war in Ukraine was critical.
The judge described Russia's invasion as "a bloody and genocidal attack" and argued, quoting Aristotle and Saint Thomas Aquinas, saying that Ukraine had the legal right to defend itself.
"If Ukraine and its special forces… organised an armed mission to destroy enemy pipelines – which the court does not prejudge – then these actions were not unlawful.
"On the contrary, they were justified, rational and just," he told the court.

Mr Zhuravlyov's wife, Yulianna, said it was important to hear the judge understood Ukrainians
He said the attack had "deprived the enemy of billions of euros paid by Germany for the gas… and weakened Russia's military potential".
What could be seen as terrorism or sabotage in peace time, the judge said, was different in a time of war.
Germany had in fact halted use of the two Nord Stream 1 pipelines after Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine and Nord Stream 2 had not yet entered service.
Poland has always been a vocal critic of that project for making Berlin too dependent on Moscow. The route deprived Poland of transit fees for the gas. Ukraine and the US were also longstanding opponents of the pipelines.
Judge Lubowski insisted, though, that his ruling was a legal one, and not emotional or political.
He also questioned whether Germany had jurisdiction even to bring its case, as the explosions were in international waters on pipelines with majority Russian state ownership.
Announcing that Mr Zhuravlyov would be released from custody, he said the Ukrainian would also get compensation from the Polish state.
"I am happy… it was a really very hard three weeks," Mr Zhuravlyov's wife, Yulianna, told the BBC in court after the judge's verdict.
"For me, as a Ukrainian, it was very important to hear that he understands us."
She said the family planned to stay in Poland, where they have lived since February 2022.
Earlier, she described her husband's arrest at their home just outside Warsaw and said he denied any involvement in the sabotage.
Volodymyr Zhuravlyov is a deep-sea diver, his wife has confirmed, but she called it a hobby and said he had no military role.
He has a business in Poland installing air conditioners. Mrs Zhuravlyova could not tell the BBC exactly where her husband was when three of the four Nord Stream pipelines were blown up, because she said no-one had asked her to check.
He is not the only suspect on Germany's list: another Ukrainian man was detained in Italy in August when he was on holiday.
Serhiy Kuznetsov was also accused of "unconstitutional sabotage" and has denied any connection to the blasts. He is currently in a high security prison in northern Italy.
A court in Bologna did rule he should be extradited to Berlin but earlier this week that verdict was annulled by the top appeals court in Rome and the case has been returned to Bologna to begin all over again.
Asked about the decision, Germany's foreign minister said he respected the ruling and it was not the job of government to interfere with the courts.

A customer tries on sneakers at On NYC flagship store in New York
Athletic shoe company On is facing a lawsuit from customers who claim that its popular sneakers make a "noisy and embarrassing squeak".
The "CloudTec" sneakers typically cost around $200 (£150) and have holes in the sole designed to make users feel like they are "running on clouds". Instead, the lawsuit says, they cause issues in daily life - especially for nurses who wear them all day.
"No reasonable consumer would purchase Defendant's shoes - or pay as much for them as they did - knowing each step creates an audible and noticeable squeak," the customers allege.
The company, which did not immediately respond to a BBC enquiry, has declined to comment on the allegations.
The class action lawsuit was filed on October 9 in US District Court in Oregon.
The customers say that multiple On sneaker styles are unwearable without "significant DIY modifications". They accused the company of "deceptive marketing".
The plaintiffs, who claim they were unable to return the shoes after complaining about the noise, are seeking refunds and other damages.
The Switzerland-based sneaker company could have "fixed the design, and/or offered to fix the shoes or [given] consumers their money back but did none of those things", the complaint alleges, citing the Cloudmonster and Cloudrunner models, among others.
One customer claimed in the complaint that she was "no longer able to use her shoes as intended due to the embarrassment and annoyance".
The plaintiffs in their complaint reference social media posts, on TikTok and Reddit, from other frustrated customers who have suggested at-home remedies for the noise - including applying coconut oil to the soles of the shoes.
On, which is backed by the tennis player Roger Federer, reported better-than-expected earnings in August. Its quarterly revenue was boosted by direct-to-consumer sales.
Earlier this year, the company said sales of its Cloudmonster and Cloudsurfer sneaker models contributed "significantly" to its growth.
Prince Andrew will no longer use his royal titles, including the Duke of York, after discussions with his brother, King Charles III.
The prince had already returned military titles and royal patronages in 2022, and stopped using the title His Royal Highness in an official capacity, after he was accused of sexual abuse in a civil case in the US.
He later settled the case brought against him by Virginia Giuffre, a victim of sex trafficking and abuse by Jeffrey Epstein, who alleged the prince sexually abused her when she was under the age of 18 - something the prince has consistently denied.
The prince's latest announcement came days before the posthumous memoir of Ms Giuffre was due for release - almost six months after she took her own life in April 2025.
His elder siblings are his brother King Charles and his sister Anne, the Princess Royal.
He is divorced from Sarah Ferguson - who lost her title as Duchess of York when the prince stopped using his own royal title - with whom he has two daughters, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie.

What was Prince Andrew accused of?
The Duke of York was accused of sexual abuse in a civil case in the US.
In court documents, Virginia Giuffre said she was the victim of sex trafficking and abuse by Jeffrey Epstein from the age of 16.
Part of her abuse involved being lent out to other powerful men - including Prince Andrew, she alleged.
Ms Giuffre says the prince sexually assaulted her on three occasions when she was under the age of 18.
Prince Andrew has consistently denied all the allegations against him. He said in an interview with BBC Newsnight in 2019 that he had no recollection of ever meeting Ms Giuffre.
However, the amount was not made public and it is not known whether he subsequently received money from his late mother the Queen Elizabeth II's - or later his brother King Charles' - private funds.
Royal sources say the King cut off Andrew's funding last year.
He lives in the Royal Lodge in Windsor, a Grade II-listed property, but that's leased from the Crown Estate and is not an asset that could be sold.
There have been repeated calls for Prince Andrew to be removed from the 30-room mansion but he has his own independent lease with the Crown Estate that lasts until 2078. Much of the costs of moving there were front-loaded when he took on the property in 2003 and there is little obvious incentive for Andrew to leave now.
Prince Andrew seems to have cultivated his own independent sources of funding since leaving public life, including business connections with China, the Gulf States and a recently curtailed project with a Dutch start-up company. He has proved financially resilient, despite what must be significant costs in paying for his own security.
What titles has Prince Andrew given up?
Prince Andrew will remain a prince as it is a title from his birth, as the son of the monarch, with the titles he has since lost only given to him later in life.
He will no longer be called the Duke of York, which he was given when he got married in 1986, and has given up membership of the Order of the Garter.
Additionally, Prince Andrew is also giving up the titles of Earl of Inverness and Baron of Killyleagh.
In 2022 it was announced he would no longer use his title of His Royal Highness, or HRH, in any official capacity - though like Harry and Meghan, he would still retain the title privately.
The duke had a 22-year career in the Royal Navy, and served as a helicopter pilot during the 1982 Falklands War. He also commanded the mine countermeasures vessel HMS Cottesmore.

His military appointments were suspended after he stepped back from public duties in 2019.
He also lost a series of UK military titles including colonel of the Grenadier Guards, honorary air commodore of RAF Lossiemouth and colonel-in-chief of the Royal Irish Regiment.
The prince used to be a patron to about 200 charities and organisations.
But after the controversial BBC interview in 2019, in which he denied allegations that he had sex with Ms Giuffre, many chose to cut ties with him. They included the Outward Bound Trust, English National Ballet, Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and London Metropolitan University.
Prince Andrew had still been left with dozens of other patronages - including being a patron or member of prestigious golf clubs, schools and cultural trusts.
But these were later returned to his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, and were to be redistributed to other members of the Royal Family.

What other roles has Prince Andrew had?
After retiring from the Navy, Prince Andrew served as the UK's special representative for trade and investment for 10 years.
He had also attracted criticism for combining business with pleasure on his overseas trips, and some newspapers gave him the nickname "Airmiles Andy".
The prince's judgement was also questioned for holding meetings with former Libyan leader Colonel Muammar Gaddafi's son Saif, and for entertaining the son-in-law of Tunisia's ousted president Zine El Abidine Ben Ali at Buckingham Palace.
And in November 2010, a secret cable published on Wikileaks revealed a US ambassador wrote that he spoke "cockily" during an official engagement, leading a discussion that "verged on the rude".
From 2011 to 2019, Prince Andrew was a working Royal.
