Denvers is set to appear at Scotland's Paisley Sheriff Court in the coming days, sources told the Daily Record, who said Police Scotland confirmed that Divers is now in custody.

Scottish and European arrest warrants were issued in 2016 after he was accused of carrying out a string of sex assaults on young boys.


Detective Superintendent Alan Henderson said: 'We are grateful to the authorities in Vietnam and our colleagues at the National Crime Agency for their assistance with this matter.'

 

Colonel Nguy?n Hà Lai, deputy chief of Qu?ng Nam police, added: 'We handed over Kenneth Divers to the British police at 3pm on January 19 at the *à N*ng airport.

 

'Through Interpol Vietnam, they sent their thanks to the police of Qu*ng Nam Province and H*i An City for their collaboration in arresting the individual.'

  The Trump administration deported eight migrants from Djibouti to South Sudan on Friday, following a series of fast-moving legal battles and despite warnings from their attorneys that they face the risk of torture, imprisonment, or even death.
