Former vet accused of having sex with animals to be extradited to UK

He is also charged with making indecent images of children, perverting the course of justice and possession of heroin

Before being led away by prison guards, the judge said that Mr Lown should be remanded in custody for not less than 15 days before being surrendered to the relevant authority during a 10-day period thereafter.

The High Court has ordered the extradition of a former veterinary surgeon who is wanted in the UK to face multiple charges of sexual activity with animals and of making child abuse material.

Oliver Lown (36), with an address at Main Road, Kesgrave, Ipswich, Suffolk, is wanted by authorities in the UK to face 12 offences, which includes the charge of having sex with dogs, horses, ponies and pigs, making indecent images of children, perverting the course of justice and possession of heroin.
