Adams to be extradited, court rules

THE High Court has ordered that Liam Adams be extradited to the North to face multiple charges of rape and indecent assault against one of his daughters.

Mr Justice John Edwards said the court would not uphold the points of objection raised by Adams in his fight against extradition and would make an order for his surrender to the North.

However, Mr Justice Edwards deferred making the order for extradition, remanding Adams on bail until Thursday, to allow time for him and his legal team to consider whether to appeal the ruling.
