Det borde vara svårt att få till en EAW i UK som är till för utlämning enbart för förhör.
Åklagaren har ju inte tagit ställning i åtalsfrågan, men säger sig vilja omhäkta JA, för att kunna utfärda en EAW, för att förhöra en tredje gång, samt för att en ny delgivning skall göras.
Det skedde ju viss lagstiftningsförändring efter turerna sist, då det i de flesta andra länder krävs att en domare godkänner utfärdandet av en EAW. I Sverige räcker det att en åklagare godkänner utfärdandet, om personen det avser är häktad, av något skäl.
Här refereras till 2003 Extradition Act, men det bör finnas ammendments till detta sen efter turerna runt 2012.
Bars to Extradition
The statutory bars to extradition apply to all cases, even if there is no explicit clause in the relevant treaty.
If the judge finds that any of the bars to extradition apply, the requested person must be discharged.
The statutory bars to extradition include the following:
Citat:
Double Jeopardy - whether the person has already been prosecuted for the same offence;
Absence of Prosecution Decision - whether the prosecution case against the accused is sufficiently advanced;
Extraneous Considerations - whether the request for extradition is improperly motivated and there is a risk of prejudice to the requested person;
Passage of Time - whether extradition would be unjust or oppressive in light of the amount of time that has passed since the offence or since the person has been unlawfully at large;
Age (EAW cases only) - whether because of age, the requested person could not be guilty of the offence;
Hostage-taking Considerations (non-EAW cases only) - whether the requested person would be unable to communicate with protective authorities and the extradition offence falls under the Taking of Hostages Act 1982;
Death Penalty (non-EAW cases only) - whether or not the requested person could be sentenced to death for the extradition offence in the requesting state;
Specialty - prevents the requested person from being dealt with in the requested state for offences other than those for which they have been extradited;
Earlier Extradition from Territory / by the International Criminal Court (‘ICC’) - whether the requested person was previously extradited to the UK from another country or by the ICC to serve a custodial sentence and no consent has been given by that country or by the ICC President for further extradition;
Forum - whether it would be in the interests of justice for the requested person to be prosecuted in the UK instead.

Någon som minns var i den söndertrollade tråden mer info kring turerna i UK avhandlades sist, samt lagförändringarna ?
