Germany okays extradition: Sweden wants woman for child murder
Hanover, Germany - A German woman, 31, is set to be extradited to Sweden where she is accused of bashing two children, 1 and 3, to death, prosecutors in the German city of Celle said Friday.
Swedish police voiced relief that her legal objections had been overruled and that she would be sent to Sweden next week.
The woman student denies allegations, widely aired in the media, that after she was jilted by a Swedish boyfriend, she had attacked his new girlfriend and the Swedish woman's children from previous relationships. News reports say the murder instrument was a hammer.
The Swedish woman, 23, survived the mysterious attack in the town of Arboga in March but reportedly cannot remember what happened. (dpa)
