Fugitive Arrested in Scotland Extradited to Northern Ireland
A 45-year-old man wanted on suspicion of fraud and burglary offences has been arrested in Scotland and extradited to Northern Ireland.
The individual is scheduled to appear before Laganside Magistrates' Court in relation to a number of outstanding arrest warrants. The operation was executed by Police Scotland officers in recent days before the man was transferred back into the jurisdiction of the PSNI.
Detective Sergeant McKernan commented on the extradition: "This arrest delivers on our assurance of the relentless pursuit of perpetrators and supporting victims.
"Our message is clear to anyone who has left Northern Ireland to the consequences of their actions. We will relentlessly pursue those that are trying to delay or deny justice to victims of crime."
