A High Court judge has rejected the bid by former Catholic brother
Bernard Kevin McGrath to overturn the Minister of Justice's decision to
grant his extradition to Australia to face sex charges.
Justice Cameron Mander's decision was issued at the Christchurch High Court today, two weeks after he spent half a day hearing submissions on the judicial review of the decision by former Justice Minister Judith Collins. Australia is seeking the extradition of McGrath, 65, to face 252 child sex abuse charges there.
