Why does that stand out?

the UK could assert extraterritorial jurisdiction based on the nationality of the victim.

The MET commissioner said so much

Asked if Brückner could be extradited to face trial in the UK, Rowley said that an offence as serious as murder need not be tried in the country where the crime took place.." There are hundreds of questions. One of the reasons we are involved is that murder is in many situations extraterritorial and potentially a murder of a British subject can in certain circumstances be charged in the UK."

It's a nonsense to think that CB will be extradited, for a start, there is not enough evidence to even question CB in Germany , imagine getting to court in the UK and the defence already showing that as reasonable doubt , he's appearing here in the UK because the threshold is lower.It'll never happen.
