Large numbers of convicted or suspected killers from overseas have seen the UK as a safe haven.

Alongside convicted triple murderer Sokol Hoxha, police are seeking the whereabouts of a number of other fugitives who have yet to serve sentences or even stand trial in their home countries.

Several have recently been arrested and are fighting extradition, often with legal aid.

About 25 extradition cases concerning overseas murders have had hearings at Westminster Magistrates Court this year, with others concerning people convicted or suspected of attempted killings.

Hoxha, 45, has evaded justice for more than 23 years for three murders in two different countries.
