An Indonesian court on Monday approved the extradition to Australia of a man wanted on drugs charges there.
Timothy Geoffrey Lee, 45, was arrested on the resort island of Bali last month at the request of Australian police, officials said.
“We accept the request from the Australian government... to extradite Australian citizen Timothy Geoffrey Lee,” judge Daniel Palitin told Denpasar district court.
Lee, who also holds a British passport, is wanted over the alleged possession of chemicals used to make methamphetamines linked to a multi-million-dollar drugs bust in New South Wales in 2006.
The suspect will be held in Bali’s Kerobokan prison until President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono signs off on the extradition request and a date is fixed, prosecutors said.
