He was arrested after his tattoos and fingerprints matched National Crime Agency documents.
Rossi has deliberately delayed extradition proceedings by claiming it is a case of mistaken identity. His legal fees, running into the tens of thousands, are being paid for by the taxpayer. Sheriff Norman McFadyen told Edinburgh Sheriff Court:"I conclude that extradition would be compatible with the Convention rights within the meaning of the Human Rights Act 1998.
Rossi was transported to and from jail in an accessible prison vehicle due to, what he describes as, the inability to stand or walk amid health complications.
