A request for the Government to broker a deal under which Kim Dotcom would give himself up to authorities in the US looks like falling on deaf ears.
Mr Dotcom says he's ready to leave New Zealand after the backlash from his involvement in politics.
But he wants the Government to negotiate terms for his surrender, saying it's the least they can do, after he was wronged.
However a spokesman for National has dismissed Mr Dotcom's plea.
He told Newstalk ZB there's an extradition treaty which sets out the process, and it's very rare for anyone to get special treatment.
'No regrets'Â
Kim Dotcom says he's got no regrets about turning his hand to politics, despite a public backlash that's left him wanting to leave the country.
The internet entrepreneur is renewing his offer to the US Department of Justice to voluntarily fly over for his trial, as long as he's granted bail and given back assets seized in 2012.
He's made the offer before, but was turned down because of the conditions he wanted attached.
In an interview with today's Herald on Sunday, Dotcom says he's making the offer again because he's been turned into a pariah.
He told the paper he doesn't understand why the tide of public opinion has turned against him.
