We consider groups G interpretable in a supersimple finite rank theory T such that T eq eliminates ∃ ∞ . It is shown that G has a definable soluble radical. If G has rank 2, then if G is pseudofinite, it is soluble‐by‐finite, and partial results are obtained under weaker hypotheses, such as ‘functional unimodularity’ of the theory. A classification is obtained when T is pseudofinite and G has a definable and definably primitive action on a rank 1 set.
