A British YouTuber who built a family-friendly brand on Minecraft gameplay and wholesome comedy content faces extradition to Poland over allegations of sexual activity with girls under 15. Stuart Kluz-Burton, known to his four million subscribers as Stuu, was arrested in Luton in October 2023 after Polish prosecutors issued charges relating to alleged incidents in 2015 and 2018.

The UK Supreme Court upheld the extradition order on 17 July 2026, rejecting Kluz-Burton's final appeal and clearing the way for his transfer to Polish authorities. The 34-year-old, who holds dual British and Polish citizenship, now awaits transport to Warsaw to face formal charges, and has not been convicted of any of the alleged offences at this stage.
