Overview
Whatever the jurisdiction seeking surrender, 9BR Chambers advises on future or present extradition requests with a view to managing the issue in the requesting state or challenging the request in England and Wales.
9BR Chambers advises clients based outside the UK on how best to challenge extradition requests in foreign jurisdictions by:
- Advancing cases on inadequate prison conditions.
- Challenging the fairness of a trial in a requesting state.
- Cross-applying principles from human rights mechanisms, such as the European or UN systems (e.g., the UN Working Group on Arbitrary Detention).
- Using data access tools to receive disclosure from foreign agencies.
- Seeking that a requesting (or issuing) state withdraws an extradition request after it is successfully challenged before a requested (or executed) state.
