Extradition sought for baby killer

A MOTHER convicted of murdering her newborn son appeared in court yesterday for an extradition hearing over the death of her baby daughter in Lithuania.

Ineta Dzinguviene, 26, killed her son, Paulius Dzingus, hours after he was born on 12 April, 2010 and has been accused of murdering her daughter in April 2009.

Paulius’s body was found in a holdall in a communal hallway in a block of flats in Fraserburgh, Aberdeenshire. Dzinguviene appeared at Edinburgh Sheriff Court yesterday for an extradition hearing relating to the death of her daughter in Lithuania.

She told the court she did not consent to the extradition and the case was continued until later this month.

Sheriff Alistair Noble told her: “The Lithuanian authorities are seeking to put you on trial for the alleged murder of your daughter.”
