White Collar Crime and the US/UK Extradition Treaty

Event date: Tuesday May 12th 2009

The issue of extradition has been back in the headlines since Gary Mackinnon, the alleged Pentagon hacker won permission from the High Court in January to apply for a judicial review against his extradition to the US. This and the earlier cases of the so-called NatWest Three and Ian Norris the former Chief Executive of Morgan Crucible provoked in 2008, has highlighted the new reach US prosecutors have under the US/UK Extradition Act 2003.
