Amanda Todd accused could be extradited

Amanda Todd

Many countries are said to be ready to extradite and prosecute Aydin Coban, the Internet abuser who is said to have duped young Amanda Todd into posting embarrassing images and then bullied her online over it. It ended two years ago with Ms. Todd’s suicide. Because of the seriousness of the crime, Canada is thought to have perhaps a better chance than many countries to bring Coban to justice here. Judicial authorities say it is likely the Netherlands will prosecute Coban first for crimes in that country. But because of the seriousness of the crimes and the similarities of Dutch and Canadian legals systems, it would be easy for the Hague to send Coban here first. In any case, it is likely to a long process, according to sources.
