Two High court judges have ruled that the extradition of Anni Dewani’s husband, accused by South African authorities of masterminding the murder of his wife be temporarily halted. (DT article here)
They haven’t upheld the appeal but temporarily halted it.
Members may recall that on the 10th August, 2011 District Judge Howard Riddle approved the extradition request a decision subsequently approved by The UK Home Secretary (Theresa May.)
It was decided by the High Court judges that Shrien Dewani is too unwell to stand trial, he is apparently suffering from post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD.) They added that it was plainly in the interests of justice that he should be extradited “as soon as he is fit” to be tried.
My thoughts and prayers go out to Anni’s family, still no finality.
Meanwhile, Shrein remains locked up in some nuthouse somewhere or other, I view it as a self imposed life sentence, his life must be an absolute misery at the moment, far better for him to recover, go to Cape Town and end the matter one way or the other.
You don’t have to speak German to understand this. The woman asks her father if he’s figured out how to use the iPad she gave him, which he affirms without question.
They won’t let me embed this clip here, I like the picture so I’m leaving it. Members who wish to refresh their memory of this funny scene will unfortunately have to watch it on youtube, please do, it sort of sets the scene for my post.
We have a PVR satellite receiver, it’s one of those clever machines which allows a family to watch 2 different channels and record a third. Continue reading “City slicker”
