AN Irishman has been arrested over the suspected murder of a homeless man who was found dead at Malaga airport last October.

Steven Allford, 51, was found on a bench with his trousers pulled down and ham placed on his exposed buttocks while his genitals had been placed in an empty tuna can.

Following a European arrest warrant, James Oโ€™Byrne, 58, was picked up by Spanish cops in Algeciras.

Two Finnish nationals and a Brit are still wanted by police after they were seen taunting Allford in a video that was posted on Facebook.

It was recorded the night that he died but it has since been removed from the social networking site.
