Paul John Newall, 44 who lives in St. Paul’s Bay and works as a marketing manager in a hotel in Malta, was arrested yesterday and brought before the local courts this morning.
The police have asked the Magistrates Court to uphold the extradition request, which case will be heard in the coming days.
He was granted bail until the hearing continues in a week’s time.
Newall, who has previous convictions for domestic violence, stands charged in the UK with threatening and insulting his former wife.
