Rejected petition Chris Tappin Extradition

More details

Chris Tappin has been extradited to America without any just reason. The retired businessman is facing up to 35 years in jail in America if found guilty for a crime it doesn't appear he committed. Why should we kowtow to America if they want to extradite a UK resident without any evidence that they have a case against them? The UK cannot extradite people from America without evidence against them. It is outrageous that the British government has allows this.
