I'm surprised he hasn't been smuggled out in a diplomatic crate.
Some of the shenanigans that went on with diplomatic bags shows that some countries are prepared to do this.

US brought down a Presidential Plane in Search of Snowden. Any sort of bag/crate big enough to fit a person would be opened immediately.

I'd send hundreds of them, every one full of old socks or something. Make it very expensive/annoying for them.

There is a lot of pen-testing fun to be had here. At the least you'll annoy them and amuse you, and at the best you cause them to expose the holes in their security capabilities.

But then again, I like to see government incompetence used against itself rather than against innocent people, like what happens here in the US.
