The man says he is Arthur Knight and is a victim of mistaken identity who has never been to the United States.
"The Scottish ministers have made their decision regarding Mr Nicholas Rossi and signed an extradition order on 28 September 2023," the government said in a statement.Rossi was first arrested by police in October in 2021 after checking himself into a hospital in Glasgow with COVID-19.
