Scottish ministers signed the extradition order last month.
A man is appealing against an attempt by the Scottish Government to extradite him to the United States.
Nicholas Rossi, 36, has lodged an appeal against the extradition order with the High Court, the Scottish Courts and Tribunals Service confirmed. Scottish ministers signed an order last month giving permission for him to be extradited to the US to face charges there, following a lengthy extradition case in the Scottish courts.Rossi initially came to the attention of the authorities after he became ill with Covid-19 and was taken to the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital in Glasgow in December 2021.
Despite a sheriff ruling that he is Nicholas Rossi, he claims he is a victim of mistaken identity and is an Irish orphan called Arthur Knight.We want our comments to be a lively and valuable part of our community - a place where readers can debate and engage with the most important local issues.
