Spanish police arrested Barcelona tycoon John McAfee, creator of the famous antivirus software program of the same name at Barcelona airport, who is wanted in the United States on suspicion of fraud.
The millionaire was intercepted on Saturday night when he was about to take a flight to Istanbul (Turkey) accompanied by two people, according to Spanish police sources, who followed up on a search and arrest warrant issued by the United States court (UNITED STATES ).
It is suspected that John McAfee, among other crimes, evaded the payment of millions of dollars in taxes on the profits he allegedly obtained in activities such as trading virtual money (cryptocurrencies).
This is not the first time he has been arrested, after last year he was detained in a port in the Dominican Republic with various weapons on board his yacht.
The millionaire had revealed days before his arrest that he was leaving the United States because the CIA was trying to arrest him for alleged tax crimes.
The Dominican authorities eventually released John Mcafee, who traveled to the UK.
McAfee is an American computer security software company based in Santa Clara, California, which was founded in 1986 by John McAfee.
