Extradition
Extradition goes back a long way, in principle, but the modern application is complex. What are the grounds for refusing extradition? How has Brexit changed our relationship with European countries? And why is our relationship with America so asymmetrical? This week on Law & Disorder, Nicholas Mostyn, Helena Kennedy and Charlie Falconer romp through the history extradition via three case studies. Firstly, the failed attempt to send Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet to face trial in Spain. Then, the US attempt to extradite hacker Gary McKinnon to face espionage charges. And finally – and most topically – the long saga of Julian Assange. For inclusion in our next mailbag edition, do send your thoughts to us via lawanddisorderfeedback@gmail.com!
