Briton Ian Bailey faces extradition hearing over 1996 murder
By Graham Fahy DUBLIN (Reuters) - An Irish court ordered British journalist Ian Bailey to face an extradition hearing in connection with his conviction in France for murdering a French film producer in Ireland 23 years ago. Bailey was sentenced in absentia to 25 years in jail by a French court in May for the murder of Sophie Toscan du Plantier, whose battered body was found while she was on holiday in the small Irish coastal village of Schull in December 1996. He has always denied the crime and Irish authorities have never prosecuted him for it
