British paedophile on the run caught in Calpe

 

British paedophile on the run caught in Calpe

British paedophile on the run caught in Calpe
A BRITISH paedophile has been arrested in the coastal town of Calpe (Alicante province) after going on the run to avoid a 25-year jail sentence.

The accused, 71, is said to have committed 'numerous' sexual assaults, including rape, on his nephews.

Four children in total – aged seven, 12, 13 and 15 at the time – were affected, at least one of them is a boy, but it has not been confirmed whether he had any nieces among the four, since the reports from Spanish police do not specify the gender of the victims, only the relationship.

The children were repeatedly raped and sexually abused during the 1980s when they stayed at his home during the school holidays.

According to the Alicante Province Judicial Police's Violent Crime Group, the fugitive had already been sentenced in the UK and was living in Calpe.

He was arrested at home on Friday after being trailed in secret by specialist detectives.
