'Maybe I will let you send me to Mexican jail, maybe I won't...'

Mexican ex-governor stalls fast-track extradition from Guatemala.  Javier Duarte, the former state governor of Mexico's ruling party who was arrested in Guatemala at the weekend, said in court on Wednesday he would not agree to be extradited until his lawyers were able to study a formal extradition request.  "At this time, I can't agree (to extradition) until the formal extradition request arrives, and it can be studied by my defense team" said Duarte. "This doesn't mean I won't accept it, though."  Reuters
