Liam Adams extradition case adjourned to April

The High Court has adjourned extradition proceedings against Liam Adams until 21 April.

The application for an adjournment was made by lawyers for Mr Adams when he appeared before the court this morning.

Mr Adams is contesting his extradition to Northern Ireland to face charges in connection with the alleged abuse of his daughter, Áine Tyrell, between March 1977 and March 1983.

He was arrested last week under a European Arrest Warrant and was brought before the High Court.
