The extradition of hackerGary McKinnonto the US has been delayed while the
government considers new evidence.
The home secretary and his legal advisers are
reportedly considering new evidence about McKinnon's
psychiatric health.
McKinnon faces extradition to the US to face trial. He has
previously confessed to having entered US computer systems without
authorisation, in an attempt to find evidence of extra-terrestrial
life and technology. However, he denies causing the damages with
which he has been charged.
Earlier this month he was
refused permission to appeal to the newly created Supreme
Court.
