Joran van der Sloot is being sent back to Peru after US trial and confession in Holloway killing

LIMA, Peru (AP) — A Dutch citizen who recently admitted to killing U.S. student Natalee Holloway in Aruba in 2005 is being sent back this week from the United States to Peru where he will serve out a sentence for the killing of a Peruvian woman. Interpol’s Peru director Col. Aldo Avila says that Joran van der Sloot will be transferred to Peru’s custody on Tuesday. Authorities earlier said he was scheduled to arrive in the Peruvian capital Monday, but police in Peru said the flight was postponed. Van der Sloot was temporarily extradited to the U.S. to face charges linked to Holloway’s disappearance, a case that has drawn international attention over the course of two decades.
