The Guardia Civil on Ibiza arrested a Briton wanted for armed robbery. News of the arrest, which took place on Friday, has just been released. The man was arrested in the West End for drug trafficking as he was found to be carrying 27 MDMA ecstasy pills, cocaine and marihuana. They then discovered that a U.K. search and capture order was in place against the man. The Guardia Judge has granted bail of 1,500 € which the British man who is unnamed in reports has paid, and now he will be taken to the Central Instruction Court in Madrid. The National Court is the body to grant extraditions in such cases. The man will presumably be judged back in the UK on the charges armed robbery and illegal possession of firearms. Once he has responded to the charges in Britain the man must respond to Spanish justice for the alleged crime of drug trafficking. Meanwhile in a separate case a British man named with the P.D.C. is in court today in Ibiza. He faces charges of involuntary manslaughter after he jumped a red light in his car in the summer of 2006, and hit a 59 year old woman who died of her injuries.
