Key Guerin suspect faces extradition to Britain

A FUGITIVE criminal and key suspect in the Veronica Guerin murder investigation faces extradition to Britain after being arrested in a small town in Holland.

John Traynor, 62, was nabbed by Dutch police on foot of a request by Britain’s Serious Organised Crime Agency (SOCA) to have him brought back to England to complete a seven-year fraud conviction.

It is understood SOCA received intelligence that Traynor was in the town of Amstelveen and forwarded a European Arrest Warrant to Dutch police.
