CONCOURT UPHOLDS HARKSEN EXTRADITION

THE Constitutional Court on Thursday ruled that German billionaire Jurgen Harksen is liable for extradition and that a section of the Extradition Act contested by Harksen’s attorneys is constitutional. The judgment was a unanimous decision by all of the Constitutional Court judges. Harksen is wanted on several fraud and tax evasion. Extradition proceedings will now be initiated against Harksen.
