Wife-killer McArdle to fight against extradition - National News, Frontpage - Independent.ie: "Wife-killer Dermot McArdle looks set to prolong his battle against imprisonment in Spain after a special hearing of the High Court yesterday heard he now intends appealing his extradition to the Supreme Court.
The 42-year-old, from Dundalk, Co Louth, had already exhausted all legal appeals in Spain when he was arrested yesterday after surrendering himself at Dundalk garda station on foot of a European Arrest Warrant for his imprisonment for the killing of his wife, Kelly-Anne Corcoran, in February 2000.
Det Sgt Jim Kerwin told Mr Justice Barry White about arresting McArdle: 'He said there is a Supreme Court case pending and I have documents to prove it. That is the only reason I have not surrendered myself.'
Det Sgt Kerwin told the court that he went to McArdle's house at Brookfield, Haggardstown, Dundalk, yesterday morning, on foot of the warrant for his extradition. He said McArdle was not there but he was able to make contact with him and he agreed to present himself at Dundalk garda station, which he did.
Det Sgt Kerwin presented him with copies of the warrant in both Spanish and English and advised him of his rights."
