'Megahacker' Extradited from Argentina to Spain

An AFP newswire article, via PhysOrg.com, reports that:

A 24-year-old Spanish man arrived in Madrid on Friday to face accusations of hacking hundreds of thousands of Euros from bank accounts after being extradited from Argentina.

Jose Manuel Garcia Rodriguez arrived at Madrid's Barajas airport from Buenos Aires flanked by two Interpol officers seven months after Argentine authorities detained him.

He is accused of breaking into bank accounts after illegally obtaining the owners' passwords.

Garcia Rodriguez fled Spain two years ago and was the subject of nine international warrants for his arrest, including three issued by a Madrid court.
