Lightbulb Shrien Dewani extradition appeal to be heard

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-bristol-16139543

Quote:
A man accused of plotting the murder of his wife on their honeymoon in South Africa is to challenge an order that he can be extradited.

Shrien Dewani, 31, denies any involvement in the killing of his wife Anni, 28, who was shot after their taxi was hijacked in Cape Town.

In August, a judge ruled that he could be sent to South Africa to stand trial.

Home Secretary Theresa May signed an order approving the extradition in September.

Two other men, Mziwamadoda Qwabe, 25, and Xolile Mngeni, 23, are also charged with murder, as well as kidnapping and robbery with aggravating circumstances and are due to go on trial at the Western Cape High Court next year.

Mr Dewani is said to be suffering from severe post-traumatic stress disorder and is receiving treatment at a Bristol clinic.

The hearing will take place on Tuesday and Wednesday at the High Court in London.
No doubt Dewani will make a dramatic appearance .....
