The prime suspect in the disappearance of American student Natalee Holloway, who was last seen on a Dutch Caribbean island, is facing extradition from Peru to face criminal charges in the United States - almost 20 years after Holloway went missing.
Dutchman Joran van der Sloot, who is currently imprisoned for the murder of a Peruvian student, will be prosecuted for alleged extortion and wire fraud charges involving promises to lead Holloway's family to her body, which was never found.
