James Dalamangas, an Australian man long sought by authorities, is arrested in Greece after more than 27 years on the run. Multiple Australian outlets report that he is wanted over the fatal stabbing of a man in Sydney in 1999. The reports say Dalamangas evaded both Australian and Greek authorities for much of the following three decades.
According to the coverage, he is arrested at a farmland property in Greece this week, with Greek authorities taking him into custody. One outlet also reports that he is 56. Another source says he appears in court in Greece following the arrest.
In addition, one report states that Dalamangas spoke publicly for the first time since he disappeared in 1999, following the Sydney stabbing case, although details of what he said are not provided in the summaries. The articles collectively frame the arrest as the resolution of a decades-long search connected to the 1999 homicide investigation.
