Ciaran Tobin wants to think

Ciaran Tobin has asked for two weeks to 'think' about whether he enters his prison cell in Hungary, Origo reports (as we know he'd be transferred to an Irish prison shortly after.)

The question is what was he doing for the past 13 years?

Hungarian authorities have granted a 'last deadline' until midnight November 21, 2013 for Tobin to arrive in Hungary to be arrested and to commence his prison term.  Click on title to read the article on Origo.

From the Irish Press


Ciaran Tobin case nears closure (or so we hope)


"Public Administration and Justice Minister Tibor Navracsics said at a joint press conference with the girls’ father last Friday that the Irish authorities had accepted his assurances Francis Ciaran Tobin would be allowed to transfer to an Irish jail. But he must first hand himself over to the Hungarian authorities."
"Navracsics was quoted as saying by state news agency MTI. “We do not insist that he serve out his sentence, or the remainder of it, in Hungary. But we do insist that a crime not go unpunished,” he said."
We are awaiting for Mr. Tobin to make this crucial move, one that is long, long overdue. And at this point, allow us to refer back to one of our earlier posts.

Linguistics à la Irish courts

We'll never know the difference between 'final' and 'absolutely final', but assumingly, Catherine Almond of Garrett Sheehan and Partners and the Irish Supreme Court do.

In any case, in light of Ms. Almond's words, our best guess is, the game is not quite over yet.
