Murder suspect to be extradited

SOUTH Korea will extradite a New Zealand murder suspect within 30 days, two months after she was arrested in South Korea in connection with two dead children found in suitcases in Auckland, New Zealand.

South Korean justice minister Han Dong-hoon yesterday issued the order for the extradition of the 42-year-old woman to New Zealand. The children’s bodies were discovered in August after a family in New Zealand bought abandoned goods, including two suitcases, in an online auction.
