Spanish Police capture British fugitive Mark Lilley in a Malaga villa



One of Britain's most wanted fugitives has been caught hiding naked in a panic room at his Spanish villa.


Mark Lilley, 41, of Warrington, went on the run in 2000 when he skipped bail during a trial for drug trafficking.


He was sentenced to 23 years in prison in his absence.


He was arrested when Spanish police and officers from the Serious Organised Crime Agency (Soca) raided his home in the Alhurin de la Torre area of Malaga on Saturday.


The operation to capture Lilley saw around 40 armed officers climb over a gate at his home, before smashing through his front door with a battering ram.


Lilley was found wearing no clothes and hiding in a panic room concealed behind a wardrobe in his bedroom.


Soca spokesman Dave Allen said he was "a dangerous man" who had "evaded capture for a long time by moving around Spain and using false identities".


He added that extradition proceedings to return Lilley to the UK were "under way".
