A Quebec real estate developer, Jean-François Malo, was arrested in Martinique on Tuesday, where he faces charges unrelated to two Canada-wide warrants for his arrest. Malo, convicted of orchestrating a 2020 armed assault on lawyer Nicholas Daudelin, had been a fugitive since mid-October after failing to attend his sentencing. He received a five-year prison sentence for aggravated assault, while an attempted murder charge could not be proven. Extradition proceedings may be initiated, but details remain confidential.
