Irish Man To Be Extradited To Ireland From US Over Rape Allegations


A judge in the US has ordered that an Irish man is to be extradited back to Ireland over rape and sexual assault allegations.

He faces charges over 177 counts of alleged rape involving two minors in Ireland.

The alleged abuse is said to have occurred mostly at GAA grounds in the midlands between 2004 and 2009.

The man faces 394 criminal counts overall, including 210 counts of alleged sexual assault.

He left the country in 2013 and was arrested near Albany in New York State last month.

A judge in New York has now ruled that the man will be held in detention in the US until he is surrendered to Irish authorities.
