Thomas O'Hare and Lisa McClatchey were doused in petrol and set on fire in their south Armagh home in 2006.

Serious Crime Detectives investigating the couple's death asked Australian police to detain the 30-year-old man.

He will appear in court in Sydney on Friday when extradition proceedings will begin.
