High Court orders 66-year-old James Donegan's extradition to Northern Ireland for a 1979 murder.

The High Court has ordered 66-year-old James Donegan to be extradited to Northern Ireland for the 1979 murder of Joseph James Porter, a part-time UDR member. Donegan is also wanted for possessing a firearm with intent to endanger life and for IRA membership. Despite concerns about the fairness of a trial after 46 years and potential health issues, the judge ruled against Donegan's objections, delaying his extradition by one week for further legal submissions.
