A 40-year-old man has been extradited from the Netherlands to Northern Ireland to stand trial over cases relating to images of child sex abuse.
The first case relates to 27 offences which include possessing, making and distributing indecent images of children.
The second case involves 108 offences that include possessing, making and distributing indecent images of children and inciting the sexual assault of a child.
The offences allegedly happened in the Lurgan area in 2014. The man skipped Crown Court bail in late 2020 and has been sought for arrest since, police said.
He was extradited to Northern Ireland on Friday and is due to appear before Lisburn Magistrates' Court on Saturday.
Sgt Davey from the Police Service of Northern Ireland's international policing unit said: "Our message is clear to anyone who fails to abide by their bail conditions that they will be located, arrested and returned before the courts."
