A murder suspect wanted in Northern Ireland has been arrested after he was extradited from the Republic.

The PSNI says the 41-year-old was held in Armagh earlier over the death of prison officer David Black.

He's appeared before Armagh Magistrates Court to face charges of aiding and abetting murder, membership of a proscribed organisation, commissioning and instigating preparatory acts of terrorism and committing and assisting acts of terrorism.

The man's been remanded in custody until next month.
