Diego Darío González Ghersi had been a fugitive from justice since he was sentenced to prison for sexually abusing his underage daughter.

His location was extremely difficult as he completely changed his physical appearance to avoid being identified.

In addition to growing a beard and long hair, and dyeing them blonde, the fugitive used coloured contact lenses, stencils to fake his height and increased his tattoos to hide his previous ones.

In June, the Spanish National Police published the list of the ten most wanted fugitives in order to request the collaboration of the public in locating them.

With the location and arrest of Diego Darío González Ghersi, and in just two months, the list is now made up of only seven fugitives.
