A convicted killer imprisoned in Peru will be handed over to US authorities to face extortion and fraud charges there stemming from the unsolved 2005 disappearance and presumed murder of an Alabama teenager
The executive order from Peru's Council of Ministers allowing the temporary extradition of Joran van der Sloot marked the latest twist in nearly 20 years of the mystery surrounding the fate of Natalee Holloway.
Van der Sloot, a Dutch national from Aruba, was arrested in the Holloway disappearance but never charged with her alleged abduction. The teen's remains have never been found but an Alabama judge declared her legally dead in January 2012. He made headlines again in 2014 when his lawyer reported that Van der Sloot had been stabbed in prison, though penitentiary authorities said he likely hurt himself.
Under an agreement with the U.S. Justice Department, according to the statement, he will face extortion and wire fraud charges "as part of a scheme to supposedly lead the to the body of their deceased daughter."
