Bailey bid to appeal extradition delayed

A BID by Ian Bailey to have his appeal against his extradition re-heard in the High Court will not be considered until January.

The motion was due to be heard in the Supreme Court today, but lawyers for the state said yesterday they were seeking more time as they were not ready to proceed.

The matter will be heard on January 13. Mr Bailey’s Supreme Court appeal is still scheduled to begin on January 16.
