It was argued that the Irish Government may not have had the authority to make a new extradition agreement with the British in the wake of Brexit. A suspected British far-right terrorist facing extradition has appeared in the High Court surrounded by prison officers in helmets and riot gear. Mark Nolan (36) from north London is being sought by authorities in the UK to face terrorism charges and possession of 250,000 indecent images, including images of children. At a previous court hearing in the UK it was heard the 36-year-old faced eight counts of possessing records of information of a kind likely to be useful to a person committing or preparing an act of terrorism, under Section 58 of the Terrorism Act 2000. The titles of the documents allegedly included 9mm Bullet Hose, Improvised Weapons Of The Underground and Pipe Hand Grenade. (…) Because the warrant for Nolan’s arrest was issued in June this year after the UK left the EU, his case is the first of its kind, it was heard, and may depend on a related Supreme Court ruling due to be made. It was argued that the Irish Government may not have had the authority to make a new extradition agreement with the British in the wake of Brexit.
