A woman will be extradited to the United Kingdom to serve the remainder of her sentence for stalking-type offences and breaching a restraining order after the Supreme Court dismissed her appeal.
Farah Damji (55) argued before the five-judge Supreme Court that she should not be surrendered as she claimed alleged inadequacies of the UK prison system’s mental health services would have an impact on her fundamental rights.
