The uncle of a US rape suspect who was extradited from Scotland says he fears his nephew will follow the same pattern of denying his identity when he appears before Utah judges.
Michael Alahverdian told STV News he wants to apologise to all those hurt by his nephew, Nicholas Rossi, as he believes the 36-year-old will never say sorry himself.
After a two-year saga in the Scottish courts, Rossi was extradited back to the United States last Friday - a move his relative says has now turned what felt like a distant and surreal situation into reality.
Rossi, 36, had claimed he had been the victim of mistaken identity - telling courts he is an Irish orphan named Arthur Knight.
