The court heard an application for an extradition order from the Slovak Republic, a category 1 territory which had imposed a single sentence in respect of two offences which appeared to have been committed on the same day: attempted murder and carrying a concealed weapon.
Held: An argument that the European arrest warrant did not comply with the requirements of section 2(6)(e) because it did not contain an apportionment of the total sentence to each of the offences was rejected. The form of the warrant did not require the specification of a separate sentence for each separate offence.
