Irishman wanted for sexual abuse of children to be extradited to UK

Alleged Irish paedophile Patrick Brunnel, who is suspected of sexually abusing several children in the UK, can be extradited to British authorities, a court in Prague ruled on Monday. The 21-year-old is accused of 16 crimes connected with sexual abuse of children in the UK between 2003 and 2006. If convicted, he could face a life sentence. The man was arrested in the Czech Republic in mid July, after two years of living in Prague. He apparently committed no crimes while living in the Czech capital.
