Canadian man arrested in U.S. over ex’s death will be extradited: court docs
A man arrested in the U.S. in connection with the slaying of his ex-girlfriend in southern Ontario will be extradited back to Canada after a Texas court found the evidence against him was “extensive.”
Court documents show a San Antonio judge also denied Ager Hasan’s request to be released on bail pending his extradition, noting his past behaviour suggested he is “both a danger to the community and a serious flight risk.”
Hasan has been in custody since his arrest in the southern U.S. city in July. The charges he faces in Canada include second-degree murder.
U.S. court documents allege Hasan “had difficulty accepting” the end of his year-long relationship with 22-year-old Melinda Vasilije, which they allege led him to stab her more than 30 times with a steak knife.
