Wisniewski and others v Regional Court in Wroclaw, Poland and others [2016] EWHC 386 (Admin), [2016] All ER (D) 23 (Mar)
The Divisional Court dismissed the appellants’ appeals against orders for their extradition to Poland to serve activated suspended sentences. It gave guidance on the distinction between a person “unlawfully at large”, within s 14(b) of the Extradition Act 2003 and a “fugitive”, before finding that the appellants could not rely on the passage of time to bar their extradition. Further, their extradition would not be disproportionate to their rights under Art 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights.
