Dissenting Opinion by

Mb. Justice Musmanno:

I dissent for the same reasons outlined in my Dissenting Opinion in the case of Commonwealth ex rel. Brown v. Baldi, 378 Pa. 504 . I believe further that the relator should have been allowed an opportunity to produce the evidence he states was available to show that in Georgia' his efforts to obtain legal counsel were frustrated by the prison authorities and that if returned to Georgia those difficulties would recur.
