Lawyers have said Pakistan’s government is ‘unlikely’ to block a UK extradition request in connection to Sara Sharif’s death.
Pakistani police are seeking to arrest a man in connection to the death of his 10-year-old daughter in Surrey.
It comes as lawyers in the UK have said Pakistan’s government is “unlikely” to block an extradition request in connection to Sara’s death. Mr Grange told the PA news agency: “There is no extradition treaty and, therefore, in order to seek the extradition the two governments have to enter into a memorandum of understanding for the extradition of the named individual.
“You’ve got to have taken a decision that there’s sufficient evidence for the individual to be charged with the offence and it requires a warrant of arrest to be issued in the UK by a UK judge for that individual.”A Home Office spokesperson said: “As a matter of long-standing policy and practice, we neither confirm nor deny the existence of extradition requests.”
He said there “lots of considerations to be given to entering into an extradition treaty” with a country such as Pakistan, stressing it is a “two-way thing”.
