Norway extradites jihadist preacher to Italy | BBC News

A fundamentalist Iraqi cleric has been extradited to Italy from Norway, despite concerns about the coronavirus.

In July 2019 he was convicted by an Italian court of leading a jihadist group.
His lawyers challenged his extradition, citing the coronavirus pandemic.
