A man whose son is facing the real possibility of being extradited to America to face computer hacking charges, has urged those opposed to the extradition to speak up.

The Revd Alexander Love said: "If you feel this is not the right thing to do, at least write to your MP and say, 'Come on, can we not have a wee think about this?'.

"We are faced with the prospect, assuming Lauri doesn't take his own life, in a few months time he could be taken away in an orange jumpsuit with chains on his arms and legs and just about nobody in the country will think it's a good idea but it's going to happen."

The Revd Alexander Love has said the home secretary's decision to sign his son Lauri's extradition order to the United States is "very upsetting" and has "caused a great amount of disquiet in this family".

Explaining why they'll be appealing against Amber Rudd's decision, he said when district judge Nina Tempia ruled in September that extradition should take place, she said it was because it was in the public interest to honour the UK's extradition treaty with America.

Mr Love continued: "Now I believe the custodians of the public interest are the public and when I talk to the public, they say they're quite happy for Lauri to stand trial in this country and to face justice here and I'm quite happy with that as well."

However, Lowestoft manager Ady Gallagher says he is likely to field an under-strength side for the match at the Goldstar Ground, with the league his main priority this season.

Alleged computer hacker Lauri Love, whose extradition order to the US has been signed by Home Secretary Amber Rudd, says he's suffered from depression all his life, and has been suicidal, "often for days and weeks at a time".

Admitting that he and his family are "disappointed but not especially surprised" at the signing of the order, he added that if any appeal against his extradition is not successful "it's likely I might lose the capacity to avoid the temptation to end my life".

Lauri Love, who is likely to be extradited to the United States after the Home Secretary Amber Rudd signed an order for his extradition, says if it happens, he doesn't think he'd ever "contribute meaningfully" to society again.

Mr Love, from Stradishall near Haverhill, said: "I don't think I would get a hearing, I would be forced to plead guilty and I would be kept in prison for potentially decades.

"[I would] then potentially not be allowed to leave, because I would be considered to owe the US government millions of dollars."

He has two weeks to appeal against the decision.  

One lane of the eastbound carriageway of the A14 between junctions 44 (Moreton Hall) and 45 (Rougham) has been closed, in order for police teams to conduct searches for RAF gunner Corrie Mckeague, who was last seen in Bury St Edmunds on 24 September.

The search will cover a mile-and-a-half stretch of road, and will continue into the afternoon, when the road is expected to fully reopen.

Tony Goldson, the councillor responsible for health, says he doesn't agree with ill-treating of patients under any circumstance: "I condone anybody who does do it. It's absolutely immoral. 

"I had a mother who was in a care home and she was well looked after.

"If I thought she had been abused in any shape or form I can assure you I would not have been a very happy bunny."
