Navinder Singh Sarao, 36, the British financial trader accused of helping trigger a multibillion-dollar US stock market crash, has lost his High Court bid for bail while he fights extradition to America.
Today, Mr Justice Cranston, sitting in London, refused Mr Sarao's renewed application for bail, saying there was "a clear risk" of him taking flight.
The US Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) said it will find and prosecute market manipulators "wherever they may be."
CFTC director of enforcement Aitan Goelman said:
Goelman was speaking ahead of the court appearance of a British trader accused of "spoofing" trades in connection with the US stock market "Flash Crash" five years ago.
