The Obama administration is mulling whether use a drone strike to kill at least one U.S. citizen in Pakistan, senior U.S. officials said Tuesday.

Reports that CIA drones were watching an American member of al Qaeda allegedly planning terrorist attacks were first published by The Associated Press on Monday. But the press agency did not say the country in which the target was located.

Speaking to NBC News on Tuesday, the officials would not give any details of the target but said it was in a tribal region of western Pakistan.

They said the White House has not yet given the order to launch.

Philadelphia School Shooting Suspect Turns Himself In

A suspect in a shooting at a Philadelphia high school that left two students wounded turned himself in Saturday, police said. According to local ABC affiliate WPVI-TV, the suspect is also a student.

Earlier on Saturday, police said they had issued a warrant for the suspect and expected him to turn himself in accompanied by an attorney. Another suspect turned himself in on Friday.

The shooting occurred in the school gym. Police told WPVI, surveillance footage showed the gun went off as it was being taken out of a bag.

Philadelphia School Shooting Suspect Turns Himself In

Suspect in LA Airport Shooting Pleads Not Guilty

ABC News – by LINDA DEUTSCH AP

A short, slender man speaking in a hoarse voice pleaded not guilty Thursday to 11 federal charges, including the murder of a Transportation Security Administration screener and the wounding of three other people during a rampage at Los Angeles International Airport last month.

The charges could bring him the death penalty. The decision on whether the government will seek the ultimate penalty will take a long time and will ultimately rest with U.S. Attorney General Erik Holder.  

Paul Anthony Ciancia, 23, who was wounded before his arrest, occasionally touched a large, white bandage on his neck during a three-minute arraignment before a federal magistrate at the West Valley Detention Center east of Los Angeles. The center has a medical facility.

The diminutive defendant acknowledged his name in a near-whisper and that he had read his 11-count indictment.

Trial was set for Feb. 11 in a downtown Los Angeles federal court. But that was a formality required to meet federal speedy trial requirements. Cianca can agree to a delay later if his lawyers determine more time is needed for preparation. A pretrial hearing was set for Jan. 27.

U.S. Attorney’s spokesman Thom Mrozek said prosecutors are continuing to investigate the event which wreaked havoc at one of the nation’s largest airports and disrupted air travel nationwide.

Ciancia is from Pennsville, N.J., and moved to Los Angeles in 2012.

Authorities say the unemployed motorcycle mechanic arrived at the airport’s Terminal 3 on Nov. 1 with the intention of killing TSA workers. Officials have said Ciancia had a grudge against the agency, but they have not indicated what prompted it.

A motive was not mentioned during the brief hearing.

After entering the terminal, police say Ciancia pulled a semi-automatic rifle from a duffel bag and began spraying the area with gunfire as hundreds of people fled in terror.

TSA Officer Gerardo Hernandez was killed. Two other uniformed TSA officers and a traveler were wounded.

Hernandez, 39, became the first TSA officer to die in the line of duty. A coroner’s report showed he was struck by a dozen bullets. Witnesses have said that after first shooting him, the gunman returned to shoot again when he saw Hernandez move.

Airport police arrested Ciancia following a gunfight in which they wounded him four times.

An indictment accuses him of “substantial planning and premeditation to cause the death of a person and to commit an act of terrorism.”

Outside court, Mrozek noted there are no allegations that Ciancia was part of a terrorist conspiracy. He said the allegation of committing a murder in an international airport falls under a terrorism provision.

Suspect in LA Airport Shooting Pleads Not Guilty

Bosting Bombing Suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev Reportedly Feared Voices In His Head

Tamerlan Tsarnaev, the 26-year-old suspected Boston Marathon bomber, was haunted by voices and feared that someone was gaining control over his mind prior to the devastating attack, according to a new report by The Boston Globe.

Tamerlan’s younger brother, Dzhokhar, 20, is also accused of carrying out the April 15 bombing, which killed three and injured more than 260. Though Tamerlan died during a shootout with police days after the incident, Dzhokhar was apprehended and faces the death penalty if convicted.

After a five-month investigation into the suspected bombers’ backgrounds, the Globe has published a lengthy piece that paints a startling portrait of the dysfunctional Tsarnaev family. Drawing from reporting in the U.S., Kyrgyzstan, Russia and Canada, the Globe claims that the motivation behind the bombing was “more likely rooted in the turbulent collapse of their family and their escalating personal and collective failures” than in what federal investigators suspect to be a jihadist agenda.

The report points to warning signs that Tamerlan was suffering from mental illness and “had some form of schizophrenia,” a family friend told the newspaper.

“He [Tamerlan] had told his mother that he felt there were two people living inside of him,” Anna Nikaeva, another family friend, told the Globe. “I told her, ‘You should get that checked out.’ But she just said, ‘No, he’s fine.’”

According to an interview with Tamerlan’s close friend, Don Larking, whom he met at his local mosque, Tamerlan was worried that uncontrollable voices in his head were directing him to do something he didn’t want to do.

“He believed in majestic mind control, which is a way of breaking down a person and creating an alternative personality with which they must coexist,” Larking told the Globe. “You can give a signal, a phrase or a gesture, and bring out the alternate personality and make them do things. Tamerlan thought someone might have done that to him.”

Mental illness has been linked to several recent mass murders.

In September, U.S. law enforcement officials told The Associated Press that Aaron Alexis, identified as the man who killed 12 and died during a shooting rampage in a D.C. Navy Yard, had been hearing voices but had not been deemed mentally unfit for his security clearance.

James Holmes, who is accused of opening fire and killing 12 in a sold-out Colorado movie theatre last year, entered a plea of not guilty by reason of insanity earlier this year.

Bosting Bombing Suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev Reportedly Feared Voices In His Head

Labour seeks terror suspect answers

4 November 2013
Last updated at 09:07 ET

We need to know why this should happen twice in 10 months”, says Yvette Cooper

Labour is urging the government to explain how a terror suspect under surveillance went missing after changing into a burka at a mosque.

Mohammed Ahmed Mohamed, 27, who was subject to an order restricting his movements, was last seen leaving the site in Acton, west London, on Friday.

Shadow home secretary Yvette Cooper described the situation as “extremely serious”.

Home Secretary Theresa May will make a statement in the Commons at 15:30 GMT.

CCTV images show Somali-born Mr Mohamed, who is said to now be a UK citizen, leaving the mosque with his face fully covered.

Police say Mr Mohamed, who has been linked to the Somali militant group al-Shabab, should not be approached but do not believe he poses a direct threat.

He was subject to a terrorism prevention and investigation measures (TPim) notice, which is aimed at protecting the public from people the home secretary believes to have engaged in terrorism-related activity but who it is not deemed feasible to prosecute or deport.

The Home Office would not confirm what had happened to the GPS tag he would have been issued with as part of the order.

Continue reading the main story

Analysis

The TPims system is under intense scrutiny on several fronts.

The disappearance of Mohammed Ahmed Mohamed raises questions as to whether the regime, dubbed “control orders-lite”, is in fact too light.

Mohamed is the second suspect to abscond. On Boxing Day 2012, Ibrahim Magag vanished after reportedly hiring a black cab. He has not been seen since.

There are also doubts about the robustness of the electronic tags that suspects have to wear.

Last week, prosecutions against three men, accused of tampering with their tags, were dropped when it emerged they may have inadvertently come loose.

Then there’s the wider question: How will police and MI5 monitor suspects when their TPims expire after the maximum two years?

Ms Cooper said: “Clearly police and security agencies will be doing everything possible to locate this terror suspect and ensure public safety.

“The home secretary also needs to provide information about the decisions made over Mohammed Ahmed Mohamed’s TPim, how he was able to abscond and what the risks to the public are.”

She called for the independent reviewer of terrorism legislation, David Anderson, to “investigate urgently what has happened and the adequacy of the controls and powers in this case”.

Mr Mohamed arrived at the An-Noor Masjid and Community Centre, in Church Road, Acton, at approximately 10:00 GMT on Friday, and was seen inside at 15:15 GMT.

CCTV images issued by Scotland Yard showed him arriving wearing a jacket and trousers and then leaving the mosque in the burka. He is 5ft 8in tall and of medium build.

The Metropolitan Police advised anyone who saw Mr Mohamed not to approach him and to call 999.

A Scotland Yard spokesman said: “The Counter Terrorism Command immediately launched inquiries to trace Mr Mohamed and these continue.

“Ports and borders were notified with his photograph and details circulated nationally. Public safety remains our priority.”

Security minister James Brokenshire said: “National security is the government’s top priority and the police are doing everything in their power to apprehend this man as quickly as possible.

“The police and security services do not believe that this man poses a direct threat to the public in the UK.

“The home secretary, on police advice, applied to the High Court for an order protecting anonymity to be lifted in order to assist with their investigation.”

Lib Dem peer Lord Carlile, the former reviewer of anti-terror laws, said: “We were assured by the government that extra money would be spent on surveillance to ensure that exactly this kind of event did not occur.

“Yet the person concerned was able to walk in the front door of a mosque as a man and out through another door as a woman, on CCTV which was not seen, apparently, by the authorities.”

The court-approved Tpim orders include a requirement that their subjects report daily to the authorities, stay overnight at a specified address, wear a GPS tag, and face restrictions on travel, movement, association and communication.

They were introduced in January 2012 to replace control orders, which had been in place for seven years and also included the power to relocate suspects.

A court-imposed anonymity order banning the publication of Mr Mohamed’s name was lifted on Saturday to allow police to make a public appeal for information.

When the TPims order was obtained, Mr Mohamed was said to have received terrorist training in Somalia and fought on the front line in support of al-Shabab.

Court documents also say he supported a UK-based network supporting terrorist-related activity in Somalia and had been involved in attack planning against Western interests in east Africa.

Last December, Ibrahim Magag, who was subject to a TPim control measure, went missing in north London and has still not been found.

Docs: Dead marathon suspect tied to 2011 killings

BOSTON (AP) — Slain Boston Marathon bombing suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev was named as a participant in an earlier triple homicide by a man who was subsequently shot to death while being questioned by authorities, according to a filing made by federal prosecutors in the case against his brother, surviving bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev.

According to the filing made Monday, Ibragim Todashev told investigators Tamerlan Tsarnaev participated in a triple slaying in Waltham on Sept. 11, 2011.

In that case, three men were found in an apartment with their necks slit and their bodies reportedly covered with marijuana. One of the victims was a boxer and friend of Tamerlan Tsarnaev.

Todashev, a 27-year-old mixed martial arts fighter, was fatally shot at his Orlando home during a meeting with an FBI agent and two Massachusetts state troopers in May, authorities said. He had turned violent while being question, according to authorities.

The filing is prosecutors’ attempt to block Dzhokhar Tsarnaev from getting certain information from authorities, including investigative documents associated with the Waltham slayings.

“The government has already disclosed to Tsarnaev that, according to Todashev, Tamerlan Tsarnaev participated in the Waltham triple homicide,” prosecutors wrote.

According to prosecutors, the ongoing investigation into the 2011 slayings is reason not to allow Dzhokhar Tsarnaev access to the documents he’s seeking.

“Any benefit to Tsarnaev of knowing more about the precise ‘nature and extent’ of his brother’s involvement does not outweigh the potential harm of exposing details of an ongoing investigation into an extremely serious crime, especially at this stage of the proceeding,” prosecutors wrote.

Prosecutors also said Dzhokhar Tsarnaev is not entitled to the information because his brother’s criminal history will be relevant, if at all, only at a possible future sentencing hearing.

A phone message left for a spokeswoman for the U.S. Attorney’s Office was not immediately returned Tuesday night. A message left for Dzhokhar Tsarnaev’s federal public defender was also not immediately returned.

Authorities allege that Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, 20, and 26-year-old Tamerlan Tsarnaev, ethnic Chechens from Russia, planned and carried out the twin bombings near the finish of the marathon on April 15. Three people were killed and more than 260 were injured.

Dzhokhar Tsarnaev faces 30 federal charges, including using a weapon of mass destruction and 16 other charges that carry the possibility of the death penalty.

Tamerlan Tsarnaev died in a gunbattle with police as authorities closed in on the brothers several days after the bombings.

School shooting suspect said he was off medication

"Fitting" end for Hannah suspect

By Ian Johnston, Alastair Jamieson and Tracy Connor, NBC News

The grandmother of kidnapped teenager Hannah Anderson has said it was “fitting” that the family friend who officials believe abducted her was killed by law enforcement officers during the successful rescue operation.

James Lee DiMaggio, who sheriff’s officials have said had an “unusual infatuation” with 16-year-old Hannah, is suspected of killing the girl’s mother Christina Anderson, 44, and brother Ethan, 8, by setting fire to his house near San Diego on Aug. 3. He is then believed to have kidnapped Hannah.

A group of people, who encountered missing teen Hannah Anderson and her alleged kidnapper James DiMaggio in the Idaho wilderness, recall their strange meeting with the two.

DiMaggio was killed during a rescue attempt Saturday in the Idaho backcountry after he and Hannah were seen by two couples out riding earlier in the week.

Sara Britt, Hannah’s maternal grandmother, said death of DiMaggio – known by the Anderson family as “Uncle Jim” – had been for the best.

“The way it ended up for both Hannah and Jim. It’s fitting,” she told NBCSanDiego on Sunday.

“No one wants to go through years of jury trials and putting Hannah through any of that,” she added.

“So, you know, I wouldn’t want to see anyone dead, but it happened.”

Hannah was transported to a hospital after being rescued.

Her husband Ralph Britt told the station earlier that the family had known DiMaggio for years.

“It was just a complete shock … Let it serve as a warning, that’s all we can say,” he said.

DiMaggio had a “close platonic relationship” with Christine Anderson, according to sheriff’s officials.

Reuters

Hannah Anderson, 16, was taken to a hospital after being rescued.

She and her husband Brett Anderson had recently separated.

Brett Anderson was “elated” that Hannah was alive, San Diego Sheriff Bill Gore said.

Relatives were waiting to hear what had happened on the night Christine Anderson and Ethan died and during the following days.

“We don’t know what she saw or heard. Hannah is the only person who knows what happened that night,” Ralph Britt said on NBC’s TODAY.

The breakthrough in the hunt for Hannah came on Wednesday morning, when two couples traveling on horseback came across DiMaggio and the girl.

“She kinda had a scared look on her face. I just had a gut feeling about him,” Mike Young, who owns a ranch in Sweet, Idaho, said at a Sunday afternoon press conference.

“They weren’t friendly, and they didn’t talk,” said Mark John, a rancher and ex-sheriff.

Both couples were carrying guns when they met DiMaggio.

“He might have got one of us, but we would’ve got him,” Mark John said.

John said after they got home, he saw the Amber Alert for Hannah on TV on Thursday and instantly recognized her. He called a friend with the Idaho State Police.

Ada County Sheriff’s Office

Kidnapping suspect James Lee DiMaggio’s blue Nissan Versa was discovered hidden in a pile of brush.

DiMaggio’s car, a Nissan Versa, was found covered with brush and without license plates the next day.

With air support and on horseback, investigators scoured the isolated area and figured out where he was holed up, moving in on Saturday.

Ada County sheriff’s spokeswoman Andrea Dearden told TODAY Sunday that agents were forced to land a two-and-a-half-hour hike away from DiMaggio’s campsite to avoid making him suspicious.

She declined to discuss details of the operation or whether DiMaggio had fired at agents, saying that a review team would investigate the suspect’s death.

“Hannah is safe, and that was our first priority from the very beginning,” said Valley County Sheriff Patty Bolen at a press conference Saturday.

"Fitting" end for Hannah suspect

Nazi war crimes suspect Csatary dies

12 August 2013
Last updated at 04:28 ET

A 98-year-old Nazi war crimes suspect, Hungarian Laszlo Csatary, has died while awaiting trial, his lawyer said.

Csatary died in a Hungarian hospital after suffering from a number of medical problems, Gabor Horvath said.

He at one time topped the list of most wanted Nazi war crimes suspects and is alleged to have helped deport 15,700 Jews to death camps in World War II.

He faced charges relating to his wartime activities in both Hungary and in neighbouring Slovakia.

Mr Horvath said his client died on Saturday morning. “He had been treated for medical issues for some time but contracted pneumonia, from which he died.”

Csatary had denied the allegations against him, saying he was merely an intermediary between Hungarian and German officials and was not involved in war crimes.

Art dealer

He was charged in June by Hungarian prosecutors in relation to what they said had been his role as chief of an internment camp for Jews in Kosice, a town then part of Hungary but now in Slovakia.

Kosice, known at the time as Kassa, was the first to be established after Germany occupied Hungary in March 1944.

Prosecutors said in a statement that Csatary, a Hungarian police officer at the time, had “deliberately provided help to the unlawful executions and torture committed against Jews deported to concentration camps… from Kosice”.

Csatary was sentenced to death in his absence in Czechoslovakia in 1948 for war crimes.

Slovakia was seeking his extradition from Hungary so it could formally sentence him although, with the abolition of the death penalty, it intended to imprison him.

The legal proceedings in Hungary were halted last month on the grounds of double jeopardy.

Csatary was named in 2012 by the Nazi-hunting Simon Wiesenthal Center as its most wanted suspect. It claimed he oversaw the deportations of Jews from Kosice to the Auschwitz death camp.

He was tracked down in Budapest in July 2012 by reporters from the UK’s Sun newspaper, with help from the Simon Wiesenthal Center, and was put under house arrest.

He fled to Canada after the war, where he worked as an art dealer in Montreal and Toronto. He disappeared in 1997 after being stripped of his Canadian citizenship.

Nazi war crimes suspect Csatary dies

Town hall suspect "snapped"

The father of the man accused of killing three people and injuring two others during a shooting at a town meeting claims his son was pushed to the breaking point by town officials.

Rockne Newell, 59, allegedly used a Ruger Mini-14 rifle to blast a barrage of gunfire through a wall into a municipal building during a town meeting Monday night in Ross Township, about 85 miles north of Philadelphia. He then allegedly entered the room and shot a supervisor and four residents, two of whom survived.

Newell then retreated to the car and picked up a revolver, authorities said. When he returned to the meeting room, the 5-foot-10, 240-pound suspect was tackled by two men and shot in the leg during the scuffle, officials said. He was then taken to the hospital before being placed in police custody, according to officials.

“I wish I killed more of them!” Newell shouted when state Trooper Nicolas De La Iglesia arrived on the scene before 8 p.m., according to the trooper’s affidavit.

While the suspect’s father, Peter Newell, admits his son was the shooter, he also doesn’t blame his son for what he did.

“It’s just a shame that everyone had to die for this,” Peter Newell said. “If they had just left him alone.”

Peter Newell claims his son was harassed by Ross Township officials for 23 years over the condition of his property. Last June, the Pocono Record published an article describing an 18-year fight between the township and Newell over the property, which includes an old camper filled with wooden pallets, a leaning garage close to collapse and a propane tank inside an old dog house.

Township supervisors voted in February 2012 to take legal action against Newell for allegedly violating zoning and sewer regulations. In October, he set up a fundraising page online to try to raise $ 10,000 for legal fees

“Ross Township took me to court & the court ruled I have to vacate my home of 20 years,” Rockne Newell wrote on the page. He said he lived on $ 600 a month in Social Security benefits and had no money to clean his property.

Rockne Newell told the newspaper he was unemployed for years after an injury from a crash and had nowhere else to go.

“They pushed him to the point where he snapped,” Peter Newell said. “I knew this was going to happen.”

Peter Newell claims he warned the Sheriff’s Deputies three weeks ago that his son was going to kill people.

“I told them, ‘people are going to be dying over this because he is just furious,’” Peter Newell said. “They just pushed him into it. It’s no excuse for murder but they pushed him to the point. I’m just telling you what he told me.”

Todd Martin, the Sheriff of Monroe County, denies this however.

“That is totally untrue,” he said. “That is not what he said. There were no threats made whatsoever toward any supervisor or elected official. Threats were made toward us because we are the ones who are responsible for the eviction to be sure people are off the property.”

Martin says Peter Newell should have done a better job of warning authorities about his son’s intentions. He also says state police may question the elder Newell about exactly how much he knew about his son’s alleged plans.

LAKESIDE, Calif. (AP) — The children treated him like an uncle. He was close friends with their parents.

James Lee DiMaggio is now a suspect in the death of Christina Anderson, the abduction of her 16-year-old daughter and the possible death or abduction of her 8-year old son.

Anderson’s body was found in DiMaggio’s burning home east of San Diego, near the dead body of a child who may be Ethan Anderson.

Brett Anderson, who flew from Tennessee to San Diego on Tuesday, pleaded with DiMaggio, 40, to release his daughter, Hannah, saying, “You’ve taken everything else.”

“Jim, I can’t fathom what you were thinking. The damage is done,” he said outside San Diego County Sheriff’s Department headquarters after being interviewed by investigators.

DiMaggio was wanted on suspicion of murder and arson in a search that began in Southern California and spread to Mexico and neighboring states. Authorities said he may be headed to Texas or Canada.

“Hannah, we all love you very much. If you have a chance, you take it. You run. You’ll be found,” Brett Anderson said, declining to take questions after reading a short statement.

On Sunday night, authorities found the body of Christina Anderson, 42, near a dead dog when they extinguished flames at DiMaggio’s rural home. The child’s body was found later as they sifted through rubble in Boulevard, a remote hamlet 65 miles east of San Diego on the U.S.-Mexico border.

An autopsy on the child was performed Tuesday but no positive identification was made, said sheriff’s Lt. Glenn Giannantonio.

“It is a possibility that it’s Ethan,” he said. “Right now we just don’t know. And we’re praying that it isn’t Ethan.”

Sheriff’s investigators said Christina Anderson was close platonic friends with DiMaggio. The suspect was very close with Brett Anderson and like an uncle to his two children, Giannantonio said.

Christina Anderson’s father, Christopher Saincome, said he had seen DiMaggio two or three times and described him as a good friend of his son-in-law.

Brett Anderson joined hundreds of family friends and neighbors at a candlelight vigil in the parking lot of El Capitan High School in Lakeside, an east San Diego suburb of 54,000 people, where Hannah was about to start her junior year. Pink paper cups stuffed between holes in the fence read, “Pray Hannah,” and dozens of white, powder blue and pink balloons lifted into the air.

Hannah Anderson was a gymnast on her high school team who liked to dance and made friends easily.

“You would never see her without a smile on her face,” said Marlee Friszell, 16, who attended Hannah’s birthday party last week.

Ethan Anderson liked to play football and baseball and go fishing, said Cyrus Dawn, 17, a longtime neighbor.

Brett and Christina Anderson recently separated, Dawn said. Investigators called Brett Anderson her ex-husband, but he said they were still married.

An Amber Alert alerted freeway motorists, television viewers and cellphone subscribers to a blue Nissan Versa with California license plates that DiMaggio was believed to be driving. The FBI was participating in the investigation.

Monday marked the first time cellphone users were notified of a statewide Amber Alert in California through their phones. The alert system, which was introduced in December, sends messages automatically, based on the phone’s location.

Murder suspect gives himself up to police

“Late last night we received intelligence which led us to an address on Larch Road in Leigh.

“Armed officers attended and a 28-year-old man handed himself into police.

“Over recent weeks we have received a very positive response from the public and we thank the people of Salford, Hindley and Leigh for their co-operation and support.”

A reward of £25,000 had been on offer to anyone with information that led to the arrest and conviction of Cope, while the appeal to find the suspect featured in Thursday’s edition of BBC1′s Crimewatch.

Earlier this month, CCTV images of Cope were released which showed him at a convenience store in Hindley, Wigan, on July 14, where he withdrew cash and bought food.

It was thought he may have evaded police by sleeping rough and using his knowledge of canal pathways between Salford and Leigh.

In a statement issued shortly after Miss Ashton’s death, her family said: “She was the most beautiful, generous, caring person anyone could ever wish to meet. She would never harm anyone and was always there for her children and family.

“Life will never be the same again without her. Our whole family and friends have been devastated by her death. The whole community is in shock.”

Police have charged a 26-year-old man with perverting the course of justice and a 25-year-old man with assisting an offender.

The Independent Police Complaints Commission is investigating the prior contact made by Miss Ashton to Greater Manchester Police.

Honeymoon suspect faces extradition

24 July 2013
Last updated at 06:27 ET

Honeymoon murder suspect Shrien Dewani will be extradited to South Africa to face trial over his wife’s death.

Mr Dewani, from Bristol, is accused of plotting to kill Anni Dewani, 28, who was shot in the head on the outskirts of Cape Town in November 2010.

Chief magistrate Howard Riddle ruled at Westminster Magistrates’ Court that Mr Dewani should return to the country.

In a statement, Mr Dewani’s family said his lawyers would be lodging an appeal.

His defence team had argued that he could suffer setbacks in his mental health if sent back now, and that the decision should be delayed by six months.

District Judge Riddle said: “It is not in question that Shrien Dewani will be returned to South Africa. The treating clinicians continue to state that Mr Dewani will recover.

“There has been recovery, but it has been slow. It may be a long time before Mr Dewani is fit to plead, but he may be closer to that point.

“It is not impossible that if returned now, then after a reasonable period of further treatment and assessment he will be found fit to plead and a trial can take place.”

‘Committed to returning’

Mr Dewani, a 33-year-old former businessman, has been diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder and depression and is receiving treatment at a hospital near Bristol.

A spokesman for his family said lawyers would review the judgment and lodge an appeal, during which time Mr Dewani would remain in the UK.

“Shrien Dewani remains unfit to be extradited or to face trial,” said the spokesman.

“Shrien remains committed to returning to South Africa when his health would permit a full trial and when appropriate protections are in place for his health and safety.

“The legal process is ongoing so it would be inappropriate to comment further.”

The hearing was attended by members of Mrs Dewani’s family, who wore photographs of her pinned to their clothes, decorated with pink ribbons.

Speaking outside court, her older sister, Ami Denborg, said they were satisfied with the decision.

“We will fight this battle to the end and this battle has just begun,” she added.

‘Hired hitman’

Mrs Dewani was travelling through the Gugulethu township in a taxi with her new husband when they were kidnapped at gunpoint.

Mr Dewani was released unharmed, but the next day the body of Mrs Dewani was found on the back seat of the car in Lingelethu West, with injuries to her head and chest.

Last year, South African Xolile Mngeni was convicted of premeditated murder for shooting Mrs Dewani.

Prosecutors claimed that he was a hitman hired by Mr Dewani to kill his wife, something that Mr Dewani has consistently denied.

The couple’s taxi driver Zola Tongo was jailed for 18 years after he admitted his part in the killing, and another accomplice, Mziwamadoda Qwabe, also pleaded guilty to murder and was handed a 25-year prison sentence.
