The Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) said on Thursday that officers from the International Policing Unit, working with the Spanish authorities, had that day extradited the man to Spain. In a statement, the PSNI said the man is wanted to stand trial for murder and being a member of an organised crime gang. In this case, we worked closely with authorities in Spain and the National Crime Agency to arrest this subject. “If fugitives travel to Northern Ireland to avoid the consequences of their previous crimes it is only a matter of time before they are arrested and brought before the extradition courts. “Our message is clear, that we will relentlessly pursue those that are trying to delay or deny justice to victims of crime.”
