Pat McCadden to face Spanish court.

Pat McCadden walked free after being accused of shooting a police officer in Spain may still stand trial.Convicted drug dealer Pat McCadden, 42, was last week told by Judge Gonzalo Divar he would not face court.But a lawyer for the unnamed 36-year-old officer - shot in Marbella in 2003 - has appealed.
Three years ago McCadden was arrested and picked out of an identity parade by the officer, shot by two men who also shot British shop owner Luke Miller.Alleged getaway driver Paul Lesbirel - also picked out by the cop - was cleared last week.
A police source said: "An appeal has been lodged. The officer intends taking it as far as he can." Gangster McCadden claimed to be a businessman importing Italian shoes into Glasgow. He was jailed for 10 years in 1985 for smuggling more than £600,000 of heroin.His lawyer Javier Muriel said: "Pat wasn't the gunman, wasn't at the scene and he's maintained his innocence all along."
