THE US has 10 days to formally request the extradition of a man from Ireland who has been described as the largest facilitator of child porn on the planet.
Eric Eoin Marques, who has Irish and US citizenship, has been remanded in custody for another week after appearing before the High Court in Dublin.
US authorities are seeking his extradition on four charges in connection to website images described as being extremely violent, graphic and depicting the rape and torture of pre-pubescent children.
An FBI special agent last week told the court the suspect is accused of being "the largest facilitator of child porn on the planet".
If convicted, he faces sentences of up to 30 years in prison.
Dressed in black jeans and an Adidas T-shirt, Marques stood at the back of the packed court flanked by prison officers during the short hearing, with members of his family nearby.
The court heard the 28-year-old was arrested last Thursday in the Irish capital on a provisional warrant and refused bail last Friday morning amid fears he was a flight risk and would interfere with evidence.
Ronan Kennedy, for the Attorney-General, asked the judge to remand the suspect for another week in anticipation of a formal request for extradition from the US which will be received and certified by Irish Justice Minister Alan Shatter by then.
The accused can be held for up to 18 days for a request, he said.
"If at that juncture a formal request for extradition is not received and not certified by the minister, Mr Marques will be released," he added.
Justice Paul McDermott warned Kennedy "time was running out" before granting the application.
