Supporters of former Italian guerrilla Cesare Battisti protest during a hearing outside the Brazilian Supreme Court in Brasilia November 12, 2009. Brazil's supreme court will decide whether to extradite the former left-wing guerrilla to Italy after the case triggered a diplomatic dispute earlier this year. Battisti, who belonged to a guerrilla group called "Armed Proletarians for Communism", is wanted in Italy on four murder charges from the 1970s.
