Düsseldorf - Wind farm fraudster Hendrik Holt, who disappeared in late August, has been apprehended in Dubai, according to the Osnabrück State Prosecutor's Office. The 32-year-old was captured "due to joint search efforts" on Friday, following his disappearance from a bail facility in Berlin's Juvenile Ward on August 25th. Holt had previously posted a photo claiming to be in Moscow, stating "Greetings from Moscow, very nice here, the caviar is fantastic" on Instagram.
His attorney later confirmed that he was hiding abroad. The prosecutor's office only responded to a last-minute request for comment on the arrest. Holt is considered one of Germany's most notorious fraudsters, due to his media presence and a documentary about him.
