Court rules against alleged bomb plotters
February 20, 2008
A High Court judge has dismissed an application by three men seeking to prevent their extradition to the United States where they have been charged with conspiracy to blow up buildings and pipelines at the John F Kennedy International Airport in New York.
However, defence lawyers for Trinidadian Kareem Ibrahim, 62, and Guyanese nationals, Abdel Nur, 57, and Abdul Kadir, 55, said they would appeal the ruling by Justice Nolan Bereaux handed down during a 45-minute presentation on Monday.
Last August, Chief Magistrate Sherman McNicolls ordered that the three men be extradited, but they were granted leave by Justice Charmaine Pemberton to challenge the extradition.
