So with your line of thinking Russia would be perfectly justified to kidnap Berezovsky and others and bring them to Russia for trial, the US wouldn't make a song and dance about it? Yea right.

The extradition treaty we have is one sided. It is much harder to get a wanted man from the US to the UK than vice versa.

That is correct sir

I have been involved in a few instances where extradition has been refused for robbery and rape, yet we allow extradition for similar offences/crimes.
