The United States requested the extradition of Karan Uppal for trafficking MDMA.
The Minister of Justice issued an Authority to Proceed.
Uppal opposed committal, arguing insufficient evidence for identity and knowledge, and that a cooperating witness's evidence was unreliable due to anonymity.
The court found prima facie evidence for identity based on law enforcement identifications and rejected the argument that the cooperating witness's evidence was manifestly unreliable.
The court also found sufficient evidence to infer Uppal's knowledge of the drugs, noting the large quantities and multiple incidents.
The request for committal was granted.
