Irishman’s extradition can proceed
Tommy Savage, 54, from Swords, Co Dublin was arrested in Amsterdam last January. The former paramilitary walked free a few days later after a Dutch examining magistrate decided he would not try to flee the country.
Yesterday, as the three judge court in Amsterdam delivered its verdict, there was no sign of the man, once described by gardaí as one of Ireland’s notorious runaway drugs traffickers.
