Noriega 'can be sent to France'
A US federal appeals court says Panama's ex-leader, Manuel Noriega, can be extradited to France.

The US convicted Noriega of laundering illicit drugs money in 1990 and he was sentenced to 30 years, later reduced to 17 years on grounds of good behaviour.

France convicted him in his absence in 1999 for laundering money through French banks, though it says he will be granted a new trial
