A former children’s entertainer extradited from Thailand to the United Kingdom was jailed on Monday for 30 years for multiple sex offences involving children.
Paul McKee, 57, who is originally from Merseyside in the UK, was found and arrested in Thailand in September 2022 by the Central Investigation Bureau (CIB) before being extradited to stand trial in Liverpool.
Police told the Bangkok Post that the National Crime Agency in the United Kingdom had worked closely with the CIB in arresting and securing McKee’s extradition.
McKee was found guilty in Liverpool Crown Court last month and jailed on Monday for 30 years with a further four years on extended licence.
The offences McKee committed were horrific and spanned a number of years and victims, Merseyside Police said.
