A 40 year-old-man was extradited from Poland to Northern Ireland, on Thursday, April 11, where he is wanted to stand trial in relation to a number of offences of cultivation of cannabis.
The offences occurred in the Maghera and Coleraine areas in October 2019. The suspect skipped bail and failed to appear before Coleraine and Magherafelt Magistrates Court in March and April 2021
The male was initially arrested in Poland on March 7 this year, and extradition proceedings are now complete with his successful return to Northern Ireland on Thursday.

Sergeant Davey, from the Police Service’s International Policing Unit, said: “This demonstrates our continued and effective working with our international partners to track down wanted persons and bring offenders to justice.
“If you abscond while on bail then PSNI will take all steps possible to locate you and have you brought before the courts here in NI.”
