She was detained on a Lithuanian extradition warrant and will appear before Laganside Extradition Court on Thursday. The PSNI's International Policing Unit has been working closely with their European counterparts to track down the fugitive. The arrest is a result of the collaboration between the PSNI and the Lithuanian authorities. The woman's extradition will now proceed to the next stage, and she will face trial in Lithuania for the serious sexual offences committed against a child.
