Prague- A Czech court Monday allowed the handing over of an Irish child abuse suspect to Britain where he is wanted for allegedly having sex with two girls aged 12 and 13, the court said.

Patrick Burnell, 21, who was detained in mid-July in a Prague apartment where he had been hiding for two years, agreed with the extradition, said spokesman for the Prague Municipal Court Petr Kulawiak.

British authorities suspect Burnell of 16 child abuse offenses. He allegedly sexually abused the two underaged girls and produced and possessed child pornography between 2003 and 2006, Czech police said.

The suspect was believed to have approached his victims via internet and abused them while taking them out for a ride, police said. (dpa)
