An extradited man has appeared in court for a second time accused of being involved in serious organised crime.

Stephen Jamieson, 42, was back in the dock at Glasgow Sheriff Court on Tuesday having initially appeared earlier this month. 

Jamieson faces a total of six charges.

He is alleged to have directed someone to commit a serious offence.

Jamieson is further accused of being involved in serious organised crime.

He is said to have been involved in four charges of being concerned in the supply of controlled drugs. 

Jamieson was back in court after he was extradited from Dubai on December 18.

He had been arrested in the United Arab Emirates on September 16, 2025 with three others who have since been released.

The extradition is thought to be the first of its kind from Dubai to Scotland.

Jamieson made no plea at the private hearing

Jamieson, whose address is in Dubai, UAE, was remanded in custody and fully committed. 

He is expected to appear at the High Court in 2026.
