Sir Menzies Campbell condemns unequal US - UK extradition treaty
The Liberal Democrats will tomorrow table an 'Extradition (United States of America) Bill' which would require the presentation of evidence to a judge before a person can be extradited to the US. Sir Menzies Campbell yesterday became the first party leader to call for the suspension of the treaty, which allows suspects to be extradited even when, as in the NatWest case, the alleged offence took place in the UK and is not being pursued by British authorities. Challenged on the issue by Sir Menzies at PMQs today, Tony Blair rejected criticism of the treaty but said he would try to try to help the bankers get bail.
