James Meehan (53) had served 14 years for the murder of ‘Gentle’ Jim McFadden in Derry in May 2007

Detective Garda Robert Comerford told Leonara Frawley BL, for the State, that he arrested Meehan by appointment at the Bridewell garda station in Dublin city shortly after 10am on Monday morning.

Ms Brosnan told Mr Justice Kerida Naidoo that her client had left the UK jurisdiction and moved south to live with his brother in Kells and to work there. “He certainly wasn’t hiding out. He is not laying low or hiding out here,” he said. He said Meehan was “living openly” and that he couldn’t consider that he wouldn’t engage with the extradition proceedings.

He ordered Meehan to sign on daily, to provide a mobile phone number to gardaí and to be contactable at all times on this number, and to not apply for any travel documents.
