[2006] EWHC 3512 (Admin)

An extradition was not barred by reason of double jeopardy because of an earlier conviction in a requesting state relied upon as evidencing the extradition offence. The subject matter, scale of activities and period over which the extradition offence was alleged to have occurred were neither substantially the same nor overlapping those in the earlier conviction.
