Irish businessman to be extradited to US for sex-assault case
The Supreme Court has cleared the way for the extradition of 54-year-old Irishman businessman to the United States where he is wanted for sexually assaulting a minor during the 1990's.
Yesterday the court rejected an appeal brought by Simon Murphy against a High Court's decision to make an order for his return to New York where he left in 1998 after pleading guilty to one count of sexual assault of a boy less than 11 year old, which is said to have occurred during the mid 1990's.
