A 38-year-old woman has been extradited from Germany to face charges for allegedly harassing and threatening CTV Edmonton anchor Joel Gotlib, his family, and others at a local ballroom dance studio.
Hana Sakkat, 38, was arrested by German Federal Police at Frankfurt International Airport in January, and was brought to Canada by Edmonton police late last week to face the charges, police said.
Edmonton Police Service spokesman Scott Pattison said investigators took steps to make the international arrest because the situation appeared to be escalating.
