Mexico extradites Hungarian fugitive
The Mexican authorities have extradited a Hungarian man suspected of having attempted homicide 17 years ago in Budapest, the national police said on Thursday.
The Hungarian authorities launched an investigation into the case in which the suspect, identified as Balázs B, had allegedly stabbed three hotel employees as they sought to prevent him and his accomplices from robbing a hotel room in Budapest in September 2001.
The suspects managed to escape from the scene, the police said in a statement.
The suspect, who was using false identification documents, was detained at the request of Hungarian authorities in Mexico on June 27 and taken to Hungary on Wednesday, they said.
Legal proceedings are under way.
