Description

The French authorities are attempting once more to have Ian Bailey extradited for the murder of Sophie Toscan Du Plantier. This week the High Court heard an application to surrender Mr Bailey following his conviction last year in a Paris court of the 1996 murder.The DPP in this country has repeatedly ruled that Mr Bailey does not have a case to answer in relation to Ms Du Plantier’s violent death. The courts here must now decide whether or not Mr Bailey is to be extradited to France, where he is likely to spend the rest of his days in prison. The podcast spoke to law lecturer Jennifer Kavanagh about what is at stake legally in the current chapter of this long running saga.
