[JURIST] Hamdi Issac, one of four suspects in a spate of failed bomb attacks [JURIST report] in London on July 21, will be extradited Thursday to the UK, Italian sources reported Wednesday. The Italian high court had previously upheld a ruling [JURIST report] that Issac had to be extradited to British authorities within 35 days under a new EU arrest warrant [EU backgrounder]. Issac faces several terrorism charges in Italy under the country's new anti-terror laws.
