An Indian court granted extradition of a man to Britain to face trial for allegedly raping and killing Hannah Foster.
The Delhi High Court rejected a petition filed against extradition of Maninder Pal Singh Kohli, who is wanted by British police for allegedly abducting and killing Hannah, 17, from Southampton, the Press Trust of India reported.
"There is sufficient evidence to prove prima-facie case against Kohli," the report quoted the judges as saying in their ruling.
"The review petition filed by Kohli has no merit and we dismiss it."
Hannah was killed near her home in Portswood, Southampton, on March 14, 2003.
Kohli travelled to India shortly after British police identified him as the prime suspect and issued a warrant for his arrest.
Indian police apprehended Kohli in 2004 and he has since been in jail.
