SENATOR Stuart Syvret says that he will fight any attempts to bring him back from London.The Senator is currently in the UK and says that any attempt to get the Jersey warrant for his arrest executed will be resisted. The warrant was issued after he missed two court appearances last week.
Senator Syvret says that he plans to write to the Metropolitan Police Commissioner to lobby against the warrant being executed in the UK and that if it is, he will seek judicial review proceedings to get it turned aside in court.
Senator Syvret currently faces two charges of breaking the Data Protection Law, and charges of driving without a licence and failing to notify the authorities of a change of address.
He denies all the charges, but failed to attend two court hearings last week, prompting Assistant Magistrate Bridget Shaw to order his arrest with a £100 bail option.
