A High Court Judge in Trinidad and Tobago has dismissed an application by three men seeking to prevent their extradition to the United States.
The three have been charged with conspiracy to blow up buildings and pipelines at the John F Kennedy International Airport in New York.
Defence lawyers for Trinidadian Kareem Ibrahim and Guyanese Abdel Nur and Abdul Kadir said they would appeal the ruling by Justice Nolan Bereaux handed down yesterday.
Last August, Chief Magistrate Sherman Mc Nicolls ordered that the three men be extradited, but they were granted leave by Justice Charmaine Pemberton to challenge the extradition.
The three men have been charged with Russell De Freitas from Guyana, who is also an American.
