It's kind of important that it all started with a European arrest warrant. That is not a request for extradition, not in the slightest.
For all intents and purposes it is the same as a British arrest warrant, when in Britain; or a Dutch warrant when in the Netherlands.
When plod find him, they're supposed to arrest then and hand him over to the officers from the country where he is wanted. No question.
Why you ask? Because the UK, the Netherlands, Sweden et. all recognise each other as being basically a-OK when it comes to the whole
due process thing.
