Court adjourns in Krejcir's extradition case

The South-African court dealing with the Czech Republic's request to extradite fugitive businessman Radovan Krejcir has adjourned proceedings. The court will meet again on 27th September, reported Czech Television on Thursday. The television station also reported that the conditions of Mr. Krejcir's bail had been changed. The defendant must now only report to police once a week instead of twice, as was previously the case. Radovan Krejcir is wanted in the Czech Republic on charges of large-scale property theft and for a string of violent crimes. He escaped Czech police during a raid on his luxury villa back in 2005. He was arrested in Johannesburg on an Interpol warrant in April of this year.
