LONDON (Alliance News) - Cable & Wireless Communications PLC on Friday said it has agreed to extend the longstop date once more on the acquisition of Barbados-based telecommunications and technology services group Columbus International Inc

Cable & Wireless is acquiring the company in a USD1.85 billion deal.
