A 45-year-old Lithuanian national who had escaped from prison in his country was arrested on Friday in Thessaloniki on a European arrest warrant.
He reportedly violated a two-day prison furlough in April last year while serving a six-year prison sentence and has since been wanted.
He appeared before a Thessaloniki prosecutor in order to begin extradition proceedings
