The High Court, having considered the application, believed that there was a case for whether the new medical evidence does require the Home Secretary to prevent Gary’s extradition under the Human Rights Act, and whether it does represent a fundamental change in the circumstances he had previously considered. If the answer on both points is found to be yes, then it is arguable that the Home Secretary’s decision to extradite Gary would be unlawful.
Janis Sharp, Gary’s mother, said “I can’t believe it some common sense at last. This judge has made such an honourable and decent decision. Gary’s health has badly declined it’s been traumatic to see”.
