However, on Monday, it was announced that van der Sloot still intends to appeal against his extradition. A hearing on the appeal will be held on Tuesday or Thursday, his lawyer Maximo Altes told US channel ‘ABC News’ on Monday. Let them know.

Van der Sloot is serving a 28-year sentence in Peru for the 2010 murder of Peruvian Stephanie Flores. He married Peruvian Lady Figueroa in 2014, where he is being held in a maximum security prison. That same year, Figueroa gave birth to a baby girl.

He should stand trial for fraud and extortion of Natalie’s mother, Elizabeth Ann Holloway, in the United States. After a possible trial in the U.S., if true, he would have to return to Peru to serve out the remainder of his sentence. Van der Sloot must remain in prison in Peru until 2045. Only then can he go to America to serve any other sentence.

Earlier on Monday, ‘Telegraph’ reported the news Van der Sloot’s extradition to the United States is questionable for another reason. The Dutch Embassy in Peru is said to have filed a formal complaint against Peru because the procedure followed was legally incorrect and resulted in a violation of van der Sloot’s rights to a fair trial. The newspaper based this on a statement made by lawyer Altes.

On Monday, Peruvian authorities announced that the extradition was scheduled for next Thursday. The first step was already taken when van der Sloot was transferred to another prison in Peru on Saturday.
