POLICE in Almeria have arrested a man with five judicial orders from different provincial courts hanging over his head for traffic safety and damage offences.
The authorities have been looking for 39-year old J.J.R.A. since April last year when an Almeria city court issue an order for his arrest and imprisonment after he was tried in absentia due to his whereabouts being unknown.
Three other courts in the provincial capital and one in Roquetas de Mar subsequently issued judicial orders for J.J.R.A. in April, June and November.
Successive Almeria police patrols tried to find out where he had got to, ultimately leading to his detention in Calle Valdivia.
The 39-year old, who has an extensive police record, is now being held in prison awaiting trial.
