“A retired British businessman who is due to be escorted to America by US marshals on Friday after losing a two-year battle against extradition has said he is ‘philosophical’ about his chances of never returning to his home country. Christopher Tappin, who is accused of conspiring to sell components for Iranian missiles, will meet the marshals at Heathrow police station and be taken to the US, where he could face 35 years in jail.”
