Decision due on bid to extradite Ian Bailey

Mr Bailey, aged 60, of The Prairie, Liscaha, Schull, West Cork, denies involvement in the death of Ms du Plantier, who was found dead in Schull in December 1996.

French authorities previously sought the surrender of Mr Bailey in 2010 but this application was refused by the Supreme Court in 2012. A second extradition request was transmitted to Ireland last year, seeking the surrender of Mr Bailey for alleged voluntary homicide.
