1. I have before me four applications for writs of habeas corpus which arise by virtue of warrants of committal made by Mr. Ian Carlson, a magistrate of Hong Kong, on the 10th December 1990. The Government of the United States of America seeks the extradition of all four Applicants to stand trial in the United States of America on drug offences. Mr. Carlson considered this matter following an Order of the Governor dated 17th July 1990 which was amended by the Governor on 25th November 1990.
