The suspected head of a Romanian organised crime network is facing extradition after he was arrested in Hertfordshire.<\/p>\n

Florin Ghinea, 43, listed as one of Europol’s most wanted men, was detained as he left a gym in Watford on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Ghinea, nicknamed “Ghenosu”, is wanted by the Romanian authorities on human trafficking, conspiracy to murder, blackmail and money laundering charges.<\/p>\n

He will appear in court for an extradition hearing on 25 September.<\/p>\n

Ghinea was arrested on Tuesday by officers from the National Crime Agency’s Armed Operations Unit (NCA) in an operation supported by Hertfordshire Police.<\/p>\n

He is accused of orchestrating a trafficking ring which saw Romanian women sent to Ireland, Finland and Dubai for the purposes of sexual exploitation, as well as conspiring to kill a criminal rival.<\/p>\n

Ghinea appeared before Westminster magistrates on Wednesday and was remanded in custody while the extradition process continues.<\/p>\n
