The idea, apparently, is that time spent on remand will count toward his sentence, a factor that seems to have been *ahem* "overlooked" by the wonderful local press. If that turns out to be the case, he'll spend the whole sentence on remand in Scotland and won't serve any time here. Dunno what the plan is for restitution to the family of the victim. He's apparently being held liable for that. But having only the local media to rely on, its a bit difficult to get any kind of clear information.
As far as you know? really? You have made many claims even including the Scottish Court was not considering extradition.
Fact is that ZD case will go to the Home minister who will sign off on the Extradition. ZD can appeal to the High Court in the UK. However the High Court may not even hear his appeal and reject it as they are fed up with appeals that have no merit and are used as a delaying tactic to avoid such extraditions.
ZD must file an appeal shortly after that Scottish province Minister signs off on the extradition. ZD wont be spending his sentence in a nice bunk in Scotland.
