Fugitive sex offender Nicholas Rossi will be transferred to England for questioning over an alleged rape from 2017.
Essex Police are setting up a prisoner transfer agreement with authorities in Scotland to ask about an attack on a woman he met in the UK after fleeing the US, the Record can reveal.
The deal is being worked on after the 35-year-old’s identity was confirmed at Edinburgh Sheriff Court on Friday, where claims that he was an Irishman called Arthur Knight were thrown out.
