The arrest came after police in South Australia allegedly linked the man by DNA to the killing of Robert Peter Sabeckis on January 13, 2000. Detective Superintendent Dave Lynch said the man was arrested in New Zealand on a warrant issued in the South Australia Magistrates court in January. "South Australia Police will seek the man's extradition to South Australia to face the murder charge," Lynch said. He could not comment further about the homicide investigation and referred media queries to South Australia Police. "Since his arrest, police have become aware the man used the name Paul Taylor while living in South Australia."
