A Co. Tyrone man has become the first person to be extradited across the border from Northern Ireland to the Republic under new legislation.
Jason Graham, 27, was handed over to Southern Ireland Gardaí at Lifford Bridge, between Strabane and Lifford, this afternoon.
He was arrested by the Northern Ireland Police Service and taken before a court in Belfast last week on foot of a European Arrest Warrant to face assault charges in Co. Donegal.
The new legislation allows for extradition between European countries and between Europe and the USA for offences of any kind that carry at least a potential 12-month custodial sentence.
* THATS WHAT THE BOARDERS FOR *

Wheres Cardiff?
Hilariously, you spelt border wrong. I also liked when you compared yourself to JFK in order to justify getting uptight about William saying mean things about your messiah. Hurray.
