MADRID (Reuters) - Spain will extradite a Serbian wanted by the United Arab Emirates for his alleged role in a multi-million dollar jewel heist carried out there by the so-called Pink Panther gang, the High Court said on Wednesday.

Police arrested Borko Ilincic in a Madrid suburb in February on an international arrest warrant issued by the UAE following a 2007 raid carried out when the gang drove two cars through the window of a jewellery store in a Dubai shopping mall, escaping with around $14 million euros of gems.
