The Supreme Court has reserved judgment on an appeal by a man fighting a fresh attempt to extradite him over a road incident in Hungary in which two children died.
The five-judge court said it would rule later on the appeal by Ciarán Tobin (47) against a decision to extradite him to complete a sentence imposed over the incident near Budapest on April 9th, 2000, when his car mounted a footpath and struck the children, one of whom was in a pram.
Extradition proceedings were brought against Mr Tobin, Offington Drive, Sutton, Dublin, in 2007 but were dismissed by the High Court and later, on appeal, by the Supreme Court.
