A man has appeared in court as extradition proceedings began in the case of Agnes Wanjiru, a Kenyan woman who was killed near a British army base in 2012.
Robert Purkiss, 38, who is originally from Greater Manchester, appeared before Westminster magistrates court on Friday and told the court he intended to contest the extradition to Kenya. He was arrested on Thursday night in Tidworth in Wiltshire by specialist officers from the National Crime Agency’s national extradition unit.
