Ian Bailey to seek legal costs over extradition refusal
Summary
The High Court heard that Ian Bailey, 60, of The Prairie, Liscaha, Schull, west Cork, will apply next month for legal costs after the court refused to order his extradition to France over the death of Sophie Tuscan du Plantier. Bailey denies any involvement in her 1996 death outside her holiday home in Schull. French authorities had sought his surrender in 2010 and again last summer for alleged voluntary homicide, but the Supreme Court and the High Court dismissed the requests, citing abuse of process. The matter was adjourned to 17 August.
