Extract from Statement to Parliament on March 2
Since this Government assumed office in September 2007, we have received 26 extradition requests from the United States. The Minister has issued the authority to proceed in 13 of those cases. In the cases of 9, these requests were made through provisional warrants which went directly to the Courts and therefore were not subject to the Minister's authorization.
One request was based on a provisional warrant which has not yet been executed as the subject has not yet been found. One request was withdrawn as the subject was subsequently arrested overseas. Apart from the Coke case, additional information has been sought in respect of one request and the last request which was received on December 7, 2009 has not yet been submitted to the Minister for a decision.
it appears you are somehow living in a box, or think yourself as Jamaica. if you took the time out to listen to the people, you would know that almost everyone is against your position on the extradition request. This is and never was a political issue but should have been one for the courts to decide. at least show us the respect of addressing us like we have some sense...and keep the nonsensical reasoning for other politicians
