Former Anglo executive David Drumm on his way back to Ireland

Former CEO of Anglo Irish Bank David Drumm is expected back in Ireland tomorrow.

Last month, he agreed to his extradition from the US to face over 30 offences relating to his time as head of the bank.

It is understood he is now being escorted back to Ireland and is due to be brought to a Dublin city Garda station in the morning where he will be formally charged and brought to the next available district court sitting.

Mr Drumm moved to Boston with his wife and two daughters just a few months after he resigned from Anglo at the end of 2008.

Last October, he was arrested by US federal agents on foot of an extradition request from Ireland.

He is wanted here to face 33 criminal offences that are alleged to have taken place in late 2007 and 2008.

They include charges of forgery, conspiracy to defraud and false accounting.

He has been in custody since his arrest and initially resisted his extradition but gave up the fight last month.

It is not yet known whether he will apply for bail or if gardaí intend to object to it.
