An extradition hearing has taken place today in Edinburgh for Nicholas Rossi – who’s wanted by US authorities on rape charges and faking his own death.

He claims to be a victim of false identity and that he’s an Irish orphan named Arthur Knight.

But last November, after months of court hearings, Sheriff McFadyen ruled he is the man American authorities are seeking in connection with sexual assault charges. Report by Chahalb. Like us on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/itn and follow us on Twitter at http://twitter.com/itn
