The British Court also ruled against the extradition of genocidal murderer Pinochet, so their rulings are not exactly gospel in terms of justice.
Since that ruling which was based on a quickly cobbled together list of allegations, NOT charges, a list that was never made available to the defense despite their repeated requests to see them, allegations that were very different from the original allegations, and one of which has been completely debunked with the revelation that the 'witness' fabricated a piece of evidence to try to match it to her story.
The ruling of the British Court has zero to do with the facts of this case and if you are now resorting to that ruling, which with the latest revelations re the US Govt, should be appealed, or taken to an International Court, you really are grasping at straws.
