The expression "his trial" in the Extradition Act 2003 s.85(3) contemplated a specific event and not the entire legal process. A person who had been convicted of crimes in Albania in his absence, had not "deliberately absented himself from his trial" where it was not established that he had left that jurisdiction or remained in the United Kingdom with the intention expressed in s.85(3).
