EU will not extradite suspects who face death penalty in US

The European Union on Friday finalized an extradition deal with the United States that excludes suspects who may face the death penalty across the Atlantic. 'Extradition to the US will henceforth only be possible under the condition that the death penalty will not be imposed or, if for procedural reasons such a condition cannot be complied with, that the death penalty will not be carried out,' EU ministers said in a statement.
