DISGRACED former world boxing champ Scott Harrison's hopes of a prison transfer to Scotland from his hellhole Spanish nick have been KO'd

DISGRACED former world boxing champ Scott Harrison's hopes of a prison transfer to Scotland from his hellhole Spanish nick have been KO'd by the threat of standing trial on fresh assault charges.
Harrison, 33, was due to be flown home from grim Botafuegos jail to Glasgow's Barlinnie prison later this month to serve the rest of his 30-month sentence for battering a cop and a man in street attack.
But last night it emerged he will have to remain in Spain as he faces trial over a SECOND violent brawl in the Costa del Sol.
It's understood the dad-of-three is facing accusations he and two pals attacked three men with bottles and glasses in a brothel in Alhaurin el Grande.
And Harrison - whose long-awaited jail move was previously held up for months by Interpol - could face up to eight months more in jail if convicted.
A source said: "No one quite understands how the authorities gave Harrison the go-ahead to return to Scotland when this was hanging over him.
"Scott's obviously taken it pretty badly. He feels as if he's in complete limbo at the moment.
"Scott had been given a return date for March 20 and was getting ready to go to a jail in Madrid for a few days before getting a flight to Glasgow. Now he's been told the move is off and he's staying put until further notice.
"His lawyer is trying to push for a quick trial over the brothel incident so he can try to revive the move to Scotland if cleared.
"But the worry now for Scott must be that he's going to end up getting another conviction and more prison time."
