Craig Porter, 37, is behind bars again after being arrested over a violent carjacking
One of the two Brits tried for kidnapping a missing waitress outside a Costa del Sol nightclub is behind bars again after being arrested over a violent carjacking.
Craig Porter, 37, was cleared last month of Agnese Klavina's illegal detention along with multi-millionaire's son Westley Capper.
Capper, 41, was instead convicted of a lesser crime of coercion relating to the way he got 'drunk' Agnese to leave celeb Puerto Banus nightclub Aqwa Mist with him and was handed a two-year prison sentence he vowed to appeal.
Liverpool-born Porter was found guilty of being Capper's accomplice and given a six-month jail term he also said he would fight, although both men walked free from court as sentences of two years or less are normally suspended for first-time offenders.
Today Spanish authorities confirmed Porter had been remanded in prison after being arrested with another British pal over a vicious attack on two Spaniards said to have ended with the alleged victims throwing themselves out of a moving vehicle which was later found burnt out.
Well-placed sources said the other man held - named as Joseph Robert Moore, 26, from Crawley, West Sussex - was also wanted on a European Arrest Warrant issued by a UK court.

Porter was remanded in prison pending an ongoing criminal probe after appearing before a judge on Thursday. His pal was also sent to jail but is expected to be extradited to Britain. It was not clear this morning why he was wanted.
The two Brits were held on Monday over the May 31 incident.
National Police from a specialist violent crime unit were hunting them after two Spaniards claimed they had been forced into a vehicle at knifepoint and assaulted by two men in the resort of Estepona west of Marbella.

The van they claim they were bundled into was found burnt out on remote wasteland near the Costa del Sol holiday town later the same day.
One of the men told detectives he threw himself out of the moving vehicle on a motorway after being hit with a bottle and badly beaten, moments after his pal had escaped from the same van as things turned nasty.
The motive has not been made clear but detectives are working on the theory that the Brits wanted a lift home because they had been drinking and the situation turned violent when the Spaniards refused.
