> The 48-year-old Australian was evicted in April and sentenced to 50 weeks in jail for breaching his bail conditions.

Still a couple of months to go (April + 50 weeks = ~March).

In England, you get (essentially automatic) early release at the half way point. He's now held on remand for the extradition proceedings: didn't ask for bail, and essentially no chance of him being granted it given what happened last time he was bailed...

He was due to be released on 22 September after serving his sentence for breaching bail conditions.
