[originaltext] A court in the United States has refused to delay the extradit

A court in the United States has refused to delay the extradition to Argentina of a former general accused of being involved in atrocities committed while Argentina was under military rule in the 1970s. Lawyers acting for General Karlo Swalosmarson had asked for the extradition which was ordered earlier this week to be deferred. A further appeal could still be made to the United States Supreme Court.  General Swalosmarson is wanted in Argentina to stand trim on charges alleging that he issued orders resulting in the murder of 39 people.
