Question juridique clé
Whether the appellant was identifiable as the person sought by Austria and thus extraditable
Solution extraite
The identity objection was rejected because Interpol Vienna reported matching fingerprints between the appellant and the person sought by Austria.
Motifs extraits
The file contained a fax from Interpol Vienna stating that the fingerprints taken in St. Gallen matched those of the wanted person; the contrary claim that he was not the requested person and had never been in Austria was therefore unfounded.
