"Dermot McArdle, who was convicted of manslaughter by a Spanish court in 2008, appeared before a special sitting of the court today following his arrest arrest under a European arrest warrant.

Consent to bail was granted to McArdle, and a court hearing was fixed for February 9th.

Spain is seeking McArdle's extradition to serve a two year sentence he received for causing the death of Kelly-Ann Corcoran. Last October, a Spanish judge signed off on an EU arrest warrant for McArdle after he failed to hand himself in for the start of a two-year jail sentence for manslaughter.

McArdle, from Brookfield, Heynestown, Dundalk, had been asked to turn himself in by September 15th, 2010, to start his jail sentence. The court order followed a series of failed appeals against his October 2008 conviction for the manslaughter of his wife.

Ms Corcoran (29) died in February 2000, two days after falling from room 421 of Marbella’s Melia Don Pepe Hotel.

Mr Justice Barry White was today informed that McArdle was arrested on Saturday on foot of a European arrest warrant issued by a Spanish judge that was subsequently endorsed by the High Court in Dublin last Friday afternoon."
