Bout allegedly offered to supply surface to air missles to what he thought were representatives of Colombian Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) rebels.

The day after his Bangkok arrest, the U.S. Department of Justice charged Bout with conspiracy to provide material support or resources to a designated foreign terrorist organization, conspiring to kill Americans, conspiring to kill US officers or employees and conspiring to acquire and use an anti-aircraft missile.

After months of delay, Bangkok's Criminal Court began an extradition hearing for Bout on September 22, 2008.

In February 2009, members of the United States Congress signed a letter to Attorney General Holder and Secretary of State (i.e. Foreign Secretary) Clinton that expressed their wish that the Bout extradition "remain a top priority".

Bout had been in prison in Bangkok for over a year when on August 11, 2009, the court ruled in his favor, denying the US request for extradition based on a lack of legal basis and political motivation behind the case. US officials expressed their surprise by this decision while a spokesman for Russias foreign ministry stated that Russia was satisfied by the decision".
