Former Turks and Caicos premier to face charges
The extradition of Michael Misick, who resigned in 2009 after a Commission of Inquiry led by a retired British judge claimed to have found “clear signs” of systemic corruption, has been approved by Brazil’s supreme federal court in Rio de Janeiro, where the islands’ former leader has been living.
His extradition comes 19 months after Interpol issued an international warrant for his arrest, in response to his failure to meet with investigators looking into allegations that the playboy premier benefited to the tune of millions of dollars from the illicit sale of Crown land in the TCI.
