0:00:02 > 0:00:04- Come on!- On the run...

0:00:04 > 0:00:05Get back here!

0:00:05 > 0:00:06..and over here.

0:00:06 > 0:00:08Hands out, now. Hands out!

0:00:08 > 0:00:11When foreign criminals flee their home countries,

0:00:11 > 0:00:13many hide out in the UK.

0:00:13 > 0:00:17- Give me your hands.- But if they think they're safe, they're wrong.

0:00:17 > 0:00:19They know they're wanted.

0:00:19 > 0:00:22A lot of these people are waiting for that knock on the door.

0:00:22 > 0:00:25But the traffic in fugitives isn't all one way.

0:00:27 > 0:00:30Across Europe, there are hundreds of British criminals

0:00:30 > 0:00:33also trying to escape justice.

0:00:33 > 0:00:34From the sun-drenched Costas

0:00:34 > 0:00:38to the busy streets of the Dutch capital

0:00:38 > 0:00:41This is how the police take down the fugitives...

0:00:41 > 0:00:44You're under attest under the Extradition Act.

0:00:44 > 0:00:46- Police officer. - ..both at home and abroad.

0:00:54 > 0:00:58On today's programme - the Metropolitan Police

0:00:58 > 0:01:01pay an early-morning call on a man accused of a vicious murder

0:01:01 > 0:01:03back in Poland.

0:01:03 > 0:01:05Can you open the door, please? It's the police.

0:01:05 > 0:01:07The Poles had mentioned to us that he's

0:01:07 > 0:01:10a violent individual and that he might offer violence towards police

0:01:10 > 0:01:12if they approached him.

0:01:12 > 0:01:16And caught on camera selling 20 kilos of cannabis.

0:01:16 > 0:01:21The drug dealer who fled the UK to hide on Amsterdam's busy streets.

0:01:21 > 0:01:23We had some information that he'd left the country.

0:01:23 > 0:01:24That's when we really ramped it up

0:01:24 > 0:01:27to try and hunt him down as a fugitive.

0:01:31 > 0:01:34The Metropolitan Police are responsible for a city

0:01:34 > 0:01:38that's home to more than 8.5 million people.

0:01:39 > 0:01:43In amongst them are fugitives wanted for crimes committed

0:01:43 > 0:01:48in other countries. It's the job of the Extradition Unit to find them

0:01:48 > 0:01:50and send them to face justice.

0:01:51 > 0:01:55The extradition team is made up of just over 20 detectives.

0:01:55 > 0:01:58On average, they deal with 1,000 requests a year.

0:01:58 > 0:02:03Last year alone, the team arrested just under 500 wanted subjects.

0:02:03 > 0:02:06Detective Sergeant Pete Rance is on duty

0:02:06 > 0:02:10with DCs Jamie Darby and Dave Salmon.

0:02:11 > 0:02:15It's just after 5am and the team are getting up to speed

0:02:15 > 0:02:17on their first target of the day.

0:02:20 > 0:02:22What's this fella wanted for again, Dave?

0:02:22 > 0:02:23He's wanted for human trafficking.

0:02:23 > 0:02:26He's brought...

0:02:26 > 0:02:30three people illegally into Hungary.

0:02:30 > 0:02:33- No warning markers or anything? - No.

0:02:35 > 0:02:37His name is Mihaly Matyas.

0:02:37 > 0:02:41He's Romanian, and has two days left to serve in prison for trafficking

0:02:41 > 0:02:45three people from Romania to Hungary in 2014.

0:02:45 > 0:02:48We get quite a lot of these types of offences.

0:02:48 > 0:02:49I mean, erm...

0:02:51 > 0:02:55..we get a lot of human trafficking for the purposes of prostitution,

0:02:55 > 0:02:57that kind of offence.

0:02:57 > 0:03:01Where Slovakia is one route, Romania is another route,

0:03:01 > 0:03:03where they are being trafficked into the UK

0:03:03 > 0:03:06to work as prostitutes in the United Kingdom.

0:03:06 > 0:03:08We get a lot of those offences.

0:03:08 > 0:03:11The detectives don't know whether the people Mityas trafficked

0:03:11 > 0:03:14would have ultimately ended up in the UK.

0:03:14 > 0:03:18Nevertheless, he's been convicted in Romania and needs to be found

0:03:18 > 0:03:20to serve his time.

0:03:21 > 0:03:25Their investigation brings them to this house in Wembley.

0:03:25 > 0:03:28This is probably going to be multiple occupancy, I would imagine,

0:03:28 > 0:03:31looking at the layout. I imagine that's a bedroom down there.

0:03:31 > 0:03:33And it's going to be one up there.

0:03:36 > 0:03:38HE KNOCKS ON DOOR

0:03:45 > 0:03:47Morning. We're from the Met Police.

0:03:47 > 0:03:48We need to speak to the people that live

0:03:48 > 0:03:51- at this address. Can we come in?- Yes.- Thanks.

0:03:51 > 0:03:53What nationality are you?

0:03:53 > 0:03:56- I'm half-Romanian, half-Bulgarian. - OK. And how many people live here?

0:03:56 > 0:03:59- Six.- Six. Are they all here at the moment?- No.

0:03:59 > 0:04:01All right. Can I speak to the people?

0:04:01 > 0:04:03INDISTINCT

0:04:03 > 0:04:04KNOCKING ON DOOR

0:04:04 > 0:04:08They'll need to identify all of the residents to find out

0:04:08 > 0:04:09if their lead has proved right.

0:04:09 > 0:04:11Morning, chaps.

0:04:11 > 0:04:13- Where are you from, fellas? - Hungary.- Hungary, OK.

0:04:13 > 0:04:15A lot of the warrants that people are wanted on,

0:04:15 > 0:04:18when we've researched those people we find that they're

0:04:18 > 0:04:19living quite transient lifestyles.

0:04:19 > 0:04:23They might be living in properties of multiple occupancy with lots

0:04:23 > 0:04:28of people living in a shared house, or even in shared flats.

0:04:28 > 0:04:31We've seen... Seen those types of scenarios as well.

0:04:33 > 0:04:36The work we do is to try and find individuals.

0:04:36 > 0:04:40So if we go to an address and we can categorically state that the person

0:04:40 > 0:04:42does not live there, it actually assists us.

0:04:42 > 0:04:44It moves things forward.

0:04:44 > 0:04:45All right, sorry to trouble you.

0:04:45 > 0:04:47Thank you very much.

0:04:48 > 0:04:52- Thanks a lot. - For now, the search is over.

0:04:52 > 0:04:55There's no sign of the man they're after at this address.

0:05:01 > 0:05:04Unfortunately, the fellow we're looking for is not there.

0:05:04 > 0:05:06All the financial trace work that Dave had done

0:05:06 > 0:05:09was suggesting that he had links there from March this year,

0:05:09 > 0:05:13which is relatively recent when we, er...

0:05:13 > 0:05:16In the scale of things, for the checks we do,

0:05:16 > 0:05:17it's quite a recent trace.

0:05:17 > 0:05:19Um...

0:05:19 > 0:05:21It's one that we'll put on the back burner for a while,

0:05:21 > 0:05:25do some more checks and see if we can get a subsequent trace of him

0:05:25 > 0:05:26in London.

0:05:26 > 0:05:30The detectives will need to investigate further, but for now,

0:05:30 > 0:05:32there's no time to waste.

0:05:34 > 0:05:37Their next case is a particularly crucial one,

0:05:37 > 0:05:40as the team track down a Polish man accused of murder

0:05:40 > 0:05:43who's been on the run for over a decade.

0:05:43 > 0:05:46Are you aware you've got a problem in Poland?

0:05:46 > 0:05:47Poland?

0:05:51 > 0:05:54This is the Titan Task Force at work.

0:05:54 > 0:05:55Police!

0:05:55 > 0:05:58Tackling organised crime head-on,

0:05:58 > 0:06:01Titan is the name of the police unit that deals

0:06:01 > 0:06:04with the most serious criminal gangs in the North West.

0:06:05 > 0:06:09Titan's mission is to tackle those at the highest echelons

0:06:09 > 0:06:11of drug trafficking and other types of crime.

0:06:11 > 0:06:14Detective Superintendent Jason Hudson

0:06:14 > 0:06:16is the unit's head of operations.

0:06:17 > 0:06:19When we try and look at these gangs,

0:06:19 > 0:06:20try and identify who the key people are,

0:06:20 > 0:06:23so that we can target our efforts and make sure that,

0:06:23 > 0:06:25when we take a gang out, we can take the whole gang out,

0:06:25 > 0:06:29rather than just one individual who might be lower down the food chain

0:06:29 > 0:06:31than perhaps those who are more significant.

0:06:32 > 0:06:34This is Glenn Madden.

0:06:34 > 0:06:38He was in charge of a huge drug-dealing operation

0:06:38 > 0:06:41worth hundreds of thousands of pounds.

0:06:41 > 0:06:45In 2015, he became the target of a major Titan investigation.

0:06:48 > 0:06:51When drug dealers make large amounts of money from drug dealing,

0:06:51 > 0:06:53they very often need to move that money about,

0:06:53 > 0:06:55whether that's to pay for other drug consignments,

0:06:55 > 0:06:58whether it's to pay for commodities -

0:06:58 > 0:07:00buy cars, put it through businesses,

0:07:00 > 0:07:02but somehow they've got to use that money

0:07:02 > 0:07:04to get it to legitimate sources.

0:07:06 > 0:07:09Detectives were investigating a huge money-laundering operation

0:07:09 > 0:07:13in Manchester and they needed to prove that the dirty cash

0:07:13 > 0:07:15was linked to drugs.

0:07:15 > 0:07:18And that's where Glenn Madden came to their attention.

0:07:20 > 0:07:22Madden was using others to build a large amounts of money

0:07:22 > 0:07:24to pay for drugs.

0:07:24 > 0:07:26One of Madden's gang members was delivering money

0:07:26 > 0:07:28to the premises that Titan were observing,

0:07:28 > 0:07:31and it was through the identification of that individual

0:07:31 > 0:07:34that we subsequently became aware of Glenn Madden and his activities.

0:07:38 > 0:07:40Madden was put under surveillance

0:07:40 > 0:07:41so police could gather evidence

0:07:41 > 0:07:45and discover the extent of his criminal network.

0:07:46 > 0:07:50After he was captured on camera doing a drug deal for 20 kilos

0:07:50 > 0:07:54of cannabis, police prepared to take his operation down.

0:07:56 > 0:07:58During the subsequent search and arrest of others

0:07:58 > 0:08:00that were involved in this enterprise,

0:08:00 > 0:08:02again, large amounts of money were recovered,

0:08:02 > 0:08:05about £200,000 in various establishments,

0:08:05 > 0:08:08which all sort of assist in showing the picture

0:08:08 > 0:08:10of this particular gang and how they operated.

0:08:10 > 0:08:12Access to large amounts of money,

0:08:12 > 0:08:14no doubt the proceeds of drug trafficking.

0:08:14 > 0:08:17They tracked down and arrested his gang.

0:08:17 > 0:08:21But Madden had been spooked and had already gone on the run.

0:08:21 > 0:08:24We had some information that he'd left the country,

0:08:24 > 0:08:28but we weren't able to tie that down as to where he particularly was.

0:08:28 > 0:08:29That's when we really ramped it up

0:08:29 > 0:08:31to try and hunt him down as a fugitive.

0:08:33 > 0:08:36Titan called in the National Crime Agency to help find out

0:08:36 > 0:08:38where Madden had gone.

0:08:40 > 0:08:42We knew that he was of importance to Titan.

0:08:42 > 0:08:45We knew that he was one of their high-profile fugitives.

0:08:45 > 0:08:48We always generally get a sense of where someone stands within

0:08:48 > 0:08:50a drugs conspiracy as well, so we realised that Madden

0:08:50 > 0:08:53was quite high up and, you know, he was a priority target for them.

0:08:54 > 0:08:56We would work up an intelligence profile

0:08:56 > 0:08:58on any subject that we'd get,

0:08:58 > 0:09:01so that we'll look at things like family, friends, associates,

0:09:01 > 0:09:05patterns of life, look into things like financial checks,

0:09:05 > 0:09:08see what kind of financial footprint they've got in the UK,

0:09:08 > 0:09:10look at past travel, look at where they've been before,

0:09:10 > 0:09:13where they've got links, where they've got criminal links.

0:09:15 > 0:09:18It didn't take the NCA long to track him down.

0:09:18 > 0:09:21Madden had fled to the Netherlands,

0:09:21 > 0:09:23a destination that's long been popular

0:09:23 > 0:09:25with British criminals on the run.

0:09:25 > 0:09:29Still definitely one of the high-profile destinations

0:09:29 > 0:09:30for UK fugitives.

0:09:30 > 0:09:34It's very close, it's easy to get to and there's a lot of cheap flights,

0:09:34 > 0:09:35there's a lot of ferries,

0:09:35 > 0:09:38so if you want to get out of the UK and want to go somewhere quickly,

0:09:38 > 0:09:40then the Netherlands is a logical choice.

0:09:40 > 0:09:43But Dutch police are well used to British fugitives

0:09:43 > 0:09:47trying to hide out in their country.

0:09:47 > 0:09:49The problem is, er, that Amsterdam

0:09:49 > 0:09:53is a very nice place to live and to visit,

0:09:53 > 0:09:56because there's a nice atmosphere in Amsterdam.

0:09:57 > 0:09:59And we are proud of that,

0:09:59 > 0:10:02but it's also a capital for the organised crime.

0:10:02 > 0:10:08Jeroen Poelert leads a team of more than 250 officers dedicated

0:10:08 > 0:10:12to tracking down serious and organised criminals in Amsterdam.

0:10:13 > 0:10:15They are sometimes hiding,

0:10:15 > 0:10:18but also sometimes just walking along the streets

0:10:18 > 0:10:22and they just look like you and me.

0:10:22 > 0:10:25Drug dealer Glenn Madden had escaped the UK,

0:10:25 > 0:10:28but police were right on his trail.

0:10:28 > 0:10:30He was on the run and the net was closing in.

0:10:32 > 0:10:33It's difficult to say, really,

0:10:33 > 0:10:35what goes on in a criminal's mind when they're on the run.

0:10:35 > 0:10:38I suspect they're always looking over their shoulder,

0:10:38 > 0:10:39always expecting that knock on the door.

0:10:39 > 0:10:41I hope that, every night, they're sleeping,

0:10:41 > 0:10:44they're looking and worried that the door's going to get put in.

0:10:44 > 0:10:45I hope that they're not settled.

0:10:45 > 0:10:49I hope that they're not getting comfortable where they are.

0:10:51 > 0:10:53The hunt was on.

0:10:53 > 0:10:57Amsterdam's covert police - experts in spotting fugitive criminals -

0:10:57 > 0:10:59were also now on the case,

0:10:59 > 0:11:03and they wouldn't stop until Madden was behind bars.

0:11:08 > 0:11:11West Yorkshire Police have an extradition team

0:11:11 > 0:11:12based here in Wakefield.

0:11:13 > 0:11:17Today, PCs Dave Lockwood and his partner Tom Allen

0:11:17 > 0:11:19are setting off for the other side of the county

0:11:19 > 0:11:22in search of a man with an interesting history.

0:11:25 > 0:11:27We're going over to Keighley, er,

0:11:27 > 0:11:30a little bit out of our usual working area.

0:11:30 > 0:11:33We are looking for a Hungarian male born in 1980

0:11:33 > 0:11:36called Sandor Polyakovics.

0:11:36 > 0:11:38I've got a number of addresses.

0:11:38 > 0:11:40However, with the research I've done,

0:11:40 > 0:11:43narrowed it down to pretty much two.

0:11:43 > 0:11:46Sandor Polyakovics has been sentenced to 20 months

0:11:46 > 0:11:50in prison in Hungary for a long list of offences.

0:11:50 > 0:11:53They include theft, counterfeiting documents

0:11:53 > 0:11:55and stealing and killing pigs.

0:12:00 > 0:12:05It's, er, quarter past one in the morning,

0:12:05 > 0:12:09and we have two addresses that Tom's researched for this chap,

0:12:09 > 0:12:11but we're not sure which address he's going to be at.

0:12:11 > 0:12:14- This one. - You think he's at this one now?

0:12:14 > 0:12:18So we're just going to do a drive-by before we actually go in

0:12:18 > 0:12:20to have a look and see if we can gain any intelligence -

0:12:20 > 0:12:21vehicles, that sort of thing.

0:12:21 > 0:12:26Tom's investigations have led him to identify the man's car.

0:12:26 > 0:12:30Unfortunately, there's no sign of it at the first address.

0:12:30 > 0:12:32So we've done a drive-by at the first address.

0:12:32 > 0:12:35We're going to do a drive-by at the second address.

0:12:36 > 0:12:40And, er, then Tom can decide which address he wants to do.

0:12:43 > 0:12:45But the car's not at the second address either.

0:12:45 > 0:12:49It's time to consider a more hi-tech approach to finding

0:12:49 > 0:12:51the vehicle and their man.

0:12:51 > 0:12:56The ANPR - Automatic Number Plate Recognition - technology exists,

0:12:56 > 0:13:00whereby the camera can read the number

0:13:00 > 0:13:03plate and that is then linked to a database,

0:13:03 > 0:13:05and gives us that automatic capture

0:13:05 > 0:13:07of a vehicle that we suspect is involved

0:13:07 > 0:13:09in some form of criminality.

0:13:11 > 0:13:14It's day two, Tom's heading back to Huddersfield,

0:13:14 > 0:13:17where Automatic Number Plate Recognition has previously picked up

0:13:17 > 0:13:19the wanted man's car.

0:13:21 > 0:13:24The reason we've come to Huddersfield is

0:13:24 > 0:13:27he does frequent this area and we've got some intelligence as to what

0:13:27 > 0:13:30vehicle he's driving, so, if possible,

0:13:30 > 0:13:33we'll try and stop him in his vehicle and place him under arrest.

0:13:33 > 0:13:39Their target has a reputation, so there's more than one unit involved.

0:13:39 > 0:13:42There's a use of violence in the commission of the offences,

0:13:42 > 0:13:46but as I said, it's seven to nine years ago, the violence was used

0:13:46 > 0:13:49against the animal and not people, so quite whether he'd be

0:13:49 > 0:13:53willing to kick off with us to evade arrest, I don't know.

0:13:53 > 0:13:57But they are not having much luck today.

0:13:57 > 0:13:59The car isn't spotted by any of the

0:13:59 > 0:14:01ANPR cameras.

0:14:01 > 0:14:05Tom's quarry seems to be having a day off.

0:14:11 > 0:14:14It's the next day and Tom's got his fingers crossed

0:14:14 > 0:14:19that Sandor Polyakovics is back to his usual routine.

0:14:21 > 0:14:25Tom's worked particularly hard on this case.

0:14:25 > 0:14:27And, as he heads towards Bradford,

0:14:27 > 0:14:29the call he's waiting for comes through.

0:14:29 > 0:14:32The man has been spotted and stopped.

0:14:32 > 0:14:34One month in though...

0:14:34 > 0:14:37He is probably totally unaware that he is wanted.

0:14:39 > 0:14:41Finally, persistence has paid off.

0:14:41 > 0:14:45He's just in time to make the arrest.

0:14:45 > 0:14:48- What's your name?- Sandor. - Sandor? Jump out, Sandor.

0:14:48 > 0:14:49All right. What I'm going to do,

0:14:49 > 0:14:53I'm just going to ask you to take a seat in the police car, all right?

0:14:54 > 0:14:57Yeah. Vehicle stopped, male's detained.

0:14:57 > 0:14:58Just jump in, mate.

0:15:00 > 0:15:02Just give me a sec.

0:15:05 > 0:15:06Jump in there, pal.

0:15:09 > 0:15:13Sandor, the Hungarian authorities have issued a European Arrest

0:15:13 > 0:15:15- Warrant for your arrest, all right?- Yeah.

0:15:15 > 0:15:18For offences of...

0:15:20 > 0:15:22..theft, assault,

0:15:22 > 0:15:25counterfeiting of money and cruelty to animals.

0:15:25 > 0:15:27- Are you aware of this? - I think, yeah.- Yeah? All right.

0:15:27 > 0:15:30You are now under arrest. You don't have to say anything,

0:15:30 > 0:15:34but anything you do save maybe given in evidence, do you understand what that means?

0:15:35 > 0:15:36A good result for us, as such.

0:15:36 > 0:15:40We've done what's been asked of us by the National Crime Agency.

0:15:40 > 0:15:44He'll be put before the court and it is for them to decide whether he's

0:15:44 > 0:15:47suitable to be released back to his home address on bail or if he'll be

0:15:47 > 0:15:51kept in custody. As far as we're concerned, it's job well done.

0:15:53 > 0:15:55At the police station,

0:15:55 > 0:15:58the man who's been on the run since he was sentenced in 2011

0:15:58 > 0:16:01is given a cell for the night.

0:16:01 > 0:16:04Tomorrow, he'll face a judge, who will decide if he will be sent back

0:16:04 > 0:16:06to Hungary.

0:16:06 > 0:16:07All right, take care.

0:16:16 > 0:16:21In London, it's early morning and the capital's extradition team are

0:16:21 > 0:16:24on the hunt for another wanted man.

0:16:24 > 0:16:29Pete and his officers are approaching a house in Catford.

0:16:29 > 0:16:34This morning, we're, er, in South East London, looking for this guy.

0:16:36 > 0:16:39The man they're after is Robert Jarnut.

0:16:39 > 0:16:41Polish police are accusing him

0:16:41 > 0:16:45of murdering a man and causing actual bodily harm to another.

0:16:46 > 0:16:50It is alleged he was part of a gang that,

0:16:50 > 0:16:54um, punched and kicked a man, who died as a result of his injuries,

0:16:54 > 0:16:56back in, um, 2005.

0:16:56 > 0:16:59There's a violent marker against him.

0:16:59 > 0:17:03Intelligence has been received from Poland that, um,

0:17:03 > 0:17:07he will use violence towards police

0:17:07 > 0:17:08if...if he's approached,

0:17:08 > 0:17:12so it's obviously a consideration for us when we're dealing with him.

0:17:14 > 0:17:19These detectives are well used to dealing with violent offenders.

0:17:19 > 0:17:22If someone such as the case of Robert Jarnut,

0:17:22 > 0:17:27where he is accused of murder, I have to consider that

0:17:27 > 0:17:32that person, although he is accused and not convicted,

0:17:32 > 0:17:34I have to consider the safety of

0:17:34 > 0:17:37the people that I'm working with and myself.

0:17:37 > 0:17:39I have to consider that he presents a risk to the people of

0:17:39 > 0:17:41London as well.

0:17:47 > 0:17:52Pete heads towards the house, backed up by the rest of his team.

0:17:59 > 0:18:01THEY CONVERSE IN UNDERTONE

0:18:08 > 0:18:11They cover all the exits, in case the wanted man

0:18:11 > 0:18:13makes a break for it.

0:18:13 > 0:18:15RAPPING ON DOOR

0:18:28 > 0:18:31CAT MEOWS

0:18:31 > 0:18:33I didn't know if he's in.

0:18:33 > 0:18:36DOG HOWLS

0:18:36 > 0:18:38When we go to an address, we're looking for signs of life.

0:18:38 > 0:18:41We're looking to see if the property's inhabited

0:18:41 > 0:18:42and there are, you know,

0:18:42 > 0:18:46different little common-sense things that you'd look for,

0:18:46 > 0:18:48whether there's pets inside the address,

0:18:48 > 0:18:52whether there are children's toys outside, whether you can see

0:18:52 > 0:18:56furniture, or pots and pans in the kitchen -

0:18:56 > 0:18:59those sorts of things are just indicators that the property is

0:18:59 > 0:19:03inhabited and, um, you know, we take it from there.

0:19:06 > 0:19:08Can you open the door, please? It's the police.

0:19:12 > 0:19:13Open the door, please.

0:19:13 > 0:19:16- Someone's coming.- Who's coming?

0:19:21 > 0:19:24Eventually, a woman answers the door.

0:19:24 > 0:19:26Hello. Sorry to trouble you.

0:19:26 > 0:19:29Sorry, I'm going to close the door, because of the dog.

0:19:29 > 0:19:31- That's all right.- What's happened? - Detective Sergeant Rance from

0:19:31 > 0:19:34the Metropolitan Police. This is my colleague DC Derby.

0:19:34 > 0:19:36- Mm-hm.- Can we come in and speak to you?

0:19:36 > 0:19:38CAT MEOWS

0:19:39 > 0:19:43They go inside and up the stairs and immediately find themselves

0:19:43 > 0:19:46face-to-face with the man accused of murder.

0:19:46 > 0:19:48Hello, Robert.

0:19:48 > 0:19:51- Hello.- OK, what's your date of birth, please?

0:19:51 > 0:19:52HE MUMBLES

0:19:56 > 0:20:00Sorry. Hold on a sec. Stay with us, Robert.

0:20:00 > 0:20:03Are your aware you've got a problem in Poland?

0:20:03 > 0:20:05Poland? From years ago?

0:20:05 > 0:20:09Yeah. Yeah. It is quite a long while ago. 2005?

0:20:09 > 0:20:11You were involved in a fight in which a man died.

0:20:11 > 0:20:15- No.- They say. They say.- OK.

0:20:15 > 0:20:17Listen, there's no problem for you in the UK,

0:20:17 > 0:20:19you're not in trouble... You're not in trouble with us,

0:20:19 > 0:20:21although we are bound to arrest you,

0:20:21 > 0:20:23cos there's a European Arrest Warrant for your arrest?

0:20:23 > 0:20:26So you're under arrest on the warrant. You don't have to say

0:20:26 > 0:20:28anything, but anything you do say may be given in evidence, OK?

0:20:28 > 0:20:31You understand that? Listen, we'll treat you properly.

0:20:31 > 0:20:32We need to get you to court today, OK?

0:20:32 > 0:20:35If you're living here for two years, if you give us the passport, er,

0:20:35 > 0:20:38the court will make a decision today

0:20:38 > 0:20:40whether you can have bail or not, OK?

0:20:40 > 0:20:42- OK.- So we need to do those things.

0:20:42 > 0:20:43- OK, have you got some clothes?- Yes.

0:20:43 > 0:20:47Can I just check those? Let me just check and make sure that there's

0:20:47 > 0:20:48nothing in there that you shouldn't have.

0:20:48 > 0:20:51It's time for Jarnut to be taken away.

0:20:51 > 0:20:54But first, he needs to hand over his documents.

0:20:54 > 0:20:56Where's your ID card?

0:20:56 > 0:20:58- My passport?- Where's your ID?

0:20:58 > 0:21:00Where's your Polish ID card?

0:21:00 > 0:21:03- No, I lost...- You've lost it?- Yeah.

0:21:04 > 0:21:07- Have you got some trainers downstairs?- Yes.

0:21:07 > 0:21:10- OK.- All right, let's go.

0:21:10 > 0:21:13He's given a chance to say goodbye before he's cuffed.

0:21:13 > 0:21:15SHE SOBS

0:21:15 > 0:21:16THEY SPEAK IN OTHER LANGUAGE

0:21:18 > 0:21:23He's been accused by the authorities in Poland of beating a man to death.

0:21:23 > 0:21:27Depending on what happens at court later today,

0:21:27 > 0:21:30it may be a long time before he sees his family again.

0:21:32 > 0:21:34OK, good man.

0:21:37 > 0:21:39No, it's here, here.

0:21:42 > 0:21:44Mind your head as you get in.

0:21:46 > 0:21:48OK. We are pleased with that.

0:21:48 > 0:21:51Um, the background work that's been done to, er,

0:21:51 > 0:21:54locate Robert Jarnut has paid off

0:21:54 > 0:21:58this morning, so I was confident he was going to be inside the address.

0:21:58 > 0:22:00I think, if they hadn't have answered the door,

0:22:00 > 0:22:04we'd have just either had to force entry or wait there for...

0:22:05 > 0:22:09..for somebody to come out and then, obviously,

0:22:09 > 0:22:12we had to be prepared for any eventuality.

0:22:12 > 0:22:16The Poles had mentioned to us that he's a violent individual and that

0:22:16 > 0:22:19he might offer violence towards police if they approached him, um,

0:22:19 > 0:22:23but as you've seen, he came very, very calm and cooperatively, so,

0:22:23 > 0:22:26all things considered, for us,

0:22:26 > 0:22:27it's a successful job.

0:22:27 > 0:22:29Robert? Come up, please, mate.

0:22:32 > 0:22:35- Good morning, sir. Do you speak English?- A little bit.

0:22:35 > 0:22:38A little bit? What's your preferred language?

0:22:38 > 0:22:41- Polish.- I'll just get an interpreter on the phone for you, sir, OK?

0:22:41 > 0:22:43His extradition is sought in Poland

0:22:43 > 0:22:48for one offence of, um, manslaughter/murder

0:22:48 > 0:22:51and one of assault occasioning in actual bodily harm.

0:22:53 > 0:22:56The bottom line is that he's wanted for a murder,

0:22:56 > 0:23:00where a man was kicked and punched to death back in Poland,

0:23:00 > 0:23:03albeit 11 years ago, and,

0:23:03 > 0:23:08in anyone's book, that must set alarm bells ringing,

0:23:08 > 0:23:12so it's surely worthwhile for, er...

0:23:12 > 0:23:15for us to be out trying to find and locate people like this,

0:23:15 > 0:23:18who are wanted for such serious offences and it means that,

0:23:18 > 0:23:21potentially, we've got someone who... The risk has been removed

0:23:21 > 0:23:23from the streets of London.

0:23:23 > 0:23:27He came very calmly, very cooperatively, but as far as we're

0:23:27 > 0:23:30concerned, there's an arrest warrant in place and,

0:23:30 > 0:23:33while those arrest warrants are in place and we're able to arrest these

0:23:33 > 0:23:34people, we will.

0:23:46 > 0:23:48Back in 2014,

0:23:48 > 0:23:52Manchester drug lord Glenn Madden was caught on camera selling

0:23:52 > 0:23:5520kg of cannabis.

0:23:55 > 0:23:58Before police could move to arrest him, he went on the run,

0:23:58 > 0:24:02sparking an international manhunt.

0:24:02 > 0:24:05Glenn Madden had links to several locations,

0:24:05 > 0:24:07several estates across Manchester,

0:24:07 > 0:24:09Devon and Cornwall,

0:24:09 > 0:24:12we knew he had links to Dubai, where he'd been seen flying to,

0:24:12 > 0:24:15so the key for us was trying to identify,

0:24:15 > 0:24:18of the locations that we knew about, where we thought he might be at.

0:24:18 > 0:24:22The National Crime Agency quickly tracked the drug dealer to

0:24:22 > 0:24:25Amsterdam, where police were soon on the lookout for him.

0:24:26 > 0:24:30The Amsterdam police are very keen on actually getting out and about

0:24:30 > 0:24:34amongst expats and, you know, actually going to the areas where

0:24:34 > 0:24:37they think expats and fugitives may be.

0:24:37 > 0:24:41With little else for the Dutch police to go on,

0:24:41 > 0:24:44photographs of Madden were given to their super spotters -

0:24:44 > 0:24:50covert detectives with a heightened ability to recognise faces.

0:24:50 > 0:24:54When you only have a face, you cannot do an investigation on that,

0:24:54 > 0:24:58so you need people who can recognise faces and are on the streets.

0:25:00 > 0:25:05One of these super spotters is this covert police officer.

0:25:05 > 0:25:09We can't identify him because he is still active and undercover.

0:25:10 > 0:25:12In June 2015,

0:25:12 > 0:25:14this detective was the first to spot

0:25:14 > 0:25:17a familiar face on the streets of Amsterdam.

0:25:28 > 0:25:30With Madden in his sights,

0:25:30 > 0:25:34the undercover officer tailed him through the city streets.

0:25:45 > 0:25:49But then, approaching Dam Square, one of the busiest places in the

0:25:49 > 0:25:51city, the fugitive disappeared.

0:26:06 > 0:26:09The Dutch police weren't about to let him escape again.

0:26:09 > 0:26:12Uniformed officers in Dam Square

0:26:12 > 0:26:15were called in and Madden was arrested.

0:26:15 > 0:26:20They tapped him on the shoulder and he realised that the game was up

0:26:20 > 0:26:24and, from that point, I think he was ready to come back.

0:26:24 > 0:26:27In the end, Madden didn't put up a fight.

0:26:27 > 0:26:32He came quietly and seemed almost relieved to be going home to the UK,

0:26:32 > 0:26:36even if it meant coming back in handcuffs.

0:26:36 > 0:26:39The pressure of being on the run, the pressure of constantly looking

0:26:39 > 0:26:41over your shoulder and being aware

0:26:41 > 0:26:44of your surroundings, who's watching you, what you're saying,

0:26:44 > 0:26:46what you're doing, constantly swapping phones,

0:26:46 > 0:26:48will inevitably take its toll on anyone,

0:26:48 > 0:26:51so we've found in the past, they've just said,

0:26:51 > 0:26:53"I was ready to come back," you know,

0:26:53 > 0:26:55"My time on the run was far more stressful than I ever imagined," you

0:26:55 > 0:26:58know, "I was ready to be returned."

0:26:58 > 0:27:01After only four months on the run,

0:27:01 > 0:27:04Madden was sent back to the UK to face charges of drug trafficking and

0:27:04 > 0:27:07money laundering.

0:27:08 > 0:27:10Glenn Madden's time didn't last very long.

0:27:10 > 0:27:12Um, he will have been expecting - I'm sure, at some point -

0:27:12 > 0:27:15that the law would catch up with him.

0:27:15 > 0:27:17I want every criminal who's on the run,

0:27:17 > 0:27:20who's a fugitive who is trying to evade capture,

0:27:20 > 0:27:22to think about that video, cos, one day,

0:27:22 > 0:27:24somebody's going to come and tap them on the shoulder,

0:27:24 > 0:27:27or they're going to arrest them, or they're going to grab them and get

0:27:27 > 0:27:30hold of them, cos, one day, their time will come.

0:27:33 > 0:27:36Less than two months after his arrest, Robert Jarnut,

0:27:36 > 0:27:40the man accused of murder and actual bodily harm,

0:27:40 > 0:27:44was returned to Poland to face trial in August 2016.

0:27:47 > 0:27:51Seven weeks after he was arrested in Keighley, West Yorkshire,

0:27:51 > 0:27:53Sandor Polyakovics -

0:27:53 > 0:27:56the man convicted of a whole range of crimes from counterfeiting

0:27:56 > 0:27:58documents to stealing pigs -

0:27:58 > 0:28:03was sent back to Hungary to complete his 20 month prison sentence.

0:28:06 > 0:28:08And British fugitive, Glenn Madden,

0:28:08 > 0:28:12was extradited back to the UK in June 2015.

0:28:12 > 0:28:15The following January, he was jailed for five years

0:28:15 > 0:28:18at Manchester Crown Court for conspiracy to

0:28:18 > 0:28:21supply cannabis and money laundering.
