The final countdown begins in Spain for UK crime-fighting charity Crimestoppers and the Serious Organised Crime Agency (SOCA), as only ten most wanted individuals remain on their Operation Captura list following the arrest of the 53rd target.
Operation Captura is the successful multi-agency campaign which identifies individuals on the run in Spain who are wanted by UK law enforcement agencies for serious crimes committed in the UK.
With 53 of the 65 individuals included in the campaigns since their launch in October 2006 now arrested, and two having had to be removed from the list, the hunt is on for the final ten remaining fugitives who include some of the UK’s most dangerous individuals. Many of those arrested are now serving lengthy prison sentences for their crimes, which range from drug trafficking to sex crimes to murder.
