British man linked to ‘one of London's most dangerous crime gangs' arrested
A British man accused of being an assassin has been arrested in the Costa del Sol. The suspect, who was reported by officers to be on the run and having links with 'one of London's most dangerous crime gangs', was found to have pistols, ammunition and a silencer in his crashed Nissan Qashqai following his arrest. He is alleged to have harassed two Dutch women after getting them to buy him cocaine in an incident at a petrol station and crashed his car, according to the local paper Diario Sur. The man, who is wanted for 'several murders', attempted to flee as officers arrived at the scene, in an area known as Riviera, between La Cala de Mijas and Marbella, it was reported by The Sun. A spokesperson for Mijas police said: 'A British man has been arrested in Riviera who had a warrant out for him ordering his remand in prison for murder.' He added: 'While conducting surveillance work in La Cala de Mijas, officers were called yesterday to deal with an altercation at a petrol station in the area. 'Upon arrival, they interviewed a customer at the station who stated that a foreign man who had been harassing her had already driven away from the scene. 'Shortly afterwards, a call was received alerting us to an accident on Orfebres Street in Riviera. 'Upon arrival the officers found a damaged vehicle that matched the one involved in the incident at the petrol station.' The images of the wreckage showed two pistols, ammunition, a silencer, a notebook with names and addresses, along with a book titled 'Practical Buddhism and the Search for Self' within the vehicle. Diario Sur reported on Saturday: 'An investigation remains open to clarify his links with organised crime.' It comes as two alleged members of a 'professional' robbery gang were arrested in Marbella following raids on around nine tourist flats.

Asylum seekers denied housing may be able to sue
The Department of Justice is examining a ruling by the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) amid fears the state could face compensation claims from hundreds of asylum seekers left homeless after being denied accommodation. The judgment, delivered last Friday, stems from two test cases brought before the High Court by men seeking international protection who alleged the government had breached their rights under the EU Reception Conditions Directive and the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union. Both men applied for asylum in 2023 but the state denied them accommodation. Each was issued with a €25 voucher and deemed ineligible for the standard daily allowance, which led to them sleeping rough in Dublin. The government had argued the breaches were due to exceptional circumstances, namely an influx of asylum seekers, which amounted to force majeure. The CJEU rejected this argument, however. Jim O'Callaghan, the justice minister, is said to be deeply concerned about the judgment given its potential to expose the state to scores of compensation claims from asylum seekers who were denied accommodation. Immigration officials also fear the ruling could inspire fraudulent claims, with new applicants lodging cases when no accommodation is available in the hope of securing compensation. On Saturday the Department of Justice confirmed the judgment was being examined. A spokesman said there had been sustained pressure on the international protection system since 2022, when a significant increase in applications began. The department added that while demand was still high, the rate of new applications had slowed since last October and the number without housing fell from more than 3,500 in March to 942 in July.
