Suspect in Meredith murder sent back to Italy

One of the key suspects in the murder of British student Meredith Kercher has been extradited back to Italy.

Rudy Guede fled the country after the death of Meredith ,21, in Perugia but was arrested in Germany after being caught travelling on a tram without a ticket.

He has denied involvement in murder, but has admitted being in her room the night she died.

He was arrested in Germany on November 20 and held in Koblenz. German police would not say specifically when the extradition took place.
