A 39-year-old man wanted for crimes in Germany and Israel is to appear before court on Wednesday to commence his extradition process.

According to the police, the man was arrested on Tueday night upon arrival at Larnaca airport, after flying in from a non-EU state.

During processing airport officials determined that the man had a European arrest warrant against him issued by Germany, for participation in a criminal organisation, internet crime and fraud, committed between 2019-2020 in Germany and Israel.
