Mongolian spy fights extradition

A mongolian spy chief has lodged an appeal after a judge ruled he could be sent to Germany to face charges of kidnap and false imprisonment.

Bat Khurts, 41, is alleged to have been involved in the abduction of the Mongolian national Enkhbat Damiran, who was wanted in connection with the murder of a government official.

Last week, District Judge Quentin Purdy said Khurts should be sent to Germany on a European arrest warrant.

Khurts, who claims he was lured to the UK so he could be apprehended and jailed, has appealed against the decision.
