Key legal question
Whether the German extradition request satisfied dual criminality and documentary requirements, and whether the appellant's alibi defeated extradition
Extracted holding
The extradition request met the treaty requirements and dual criminality was satisfied; the asserted alibi was not liquidly proved and did not bar extradition.
Extracted reasoning
The court held that under the extradition treaty the Swiss authorities do not assess guilt, only whether sufficient indications of an extraditable offence exist. The submitted documents did not conclusively show the appellant was absent from the crime scene, and the German authorities provided reasons to doubt the alibi evidence.
