Karadzic extradition may be delayed

---

Prosecutors at The Hague war crimes tribunal say they expect the extradition of the former Bosnian Serb leader Radovan Karadzic to be delayed, BBC reports.

Mr Karadzic's lawyer has made it clear he will appeal against the extradition at the very last minute Friday.

However Serbian war crimes prosecutors say they expect Mr Karadzic to be sent to The Hague next week.

Mr Karadzic plans to conduct his own defence in his trial - something the tribunal prosecutors oppose.

Mr Karadzic was captured Monday after more than a decade in hiding.
