The suspect is a 27-year-old man from Ballyfermot, west Dublin, who fled Ireland in recent years for the Spanish coast. Last night he was being held in custody having been arrested in possession of a false passport.
British national Daniel Smith, aged 24, died in a hail of bullets as he sipped a drink on a terrace on the Costa del Sol. The gunman opened fire from a high-powered motorbike in a drive-by murder on Saturday night.
