From The West Australian, 13/9/06, by Roy Gibson [not available on the Web, except to subscribers] ...
Accused nazi war criminal Charles Zentai has failed in a legal bid to stop extradition .... to Hundary to face a murder charge ... an allegation [that] he murdered a Jewish teenager in Budapest in 1944 ....
Yesterday federal Court judge Tony Siopis rejected submissions ... that it was unlawful for WA Magistratesto carry out extradition proceedings under the Commonwealth Extradition Act.
....Mr Zentai is next due to appear in Perth Magistrates Court on September 22 ... a hearing date could be set for the extradition proceedings.
It is now more than 18 months since a Hungarian military tribunal issued an international arrest warrant for Mr Zentai....
