NEWCASTLE starlet Garang Kuol’s fugitive brother has been arrested after a year on the run.

The striker’s sibling, Kuol Mawien Kuol, was detained on Thursday just weeks after taking to social media to “taunt police”.

Kuol was arrested in West Footscray, Australia at dawn on Thursday in what cops claim was part of an investigation into fraud and drug matters.

The 25-year-old previously worked at a bank, where he faced fraud allegations nearly 12 months ago.

He has been accused of stealing $121,000 (£63,000) from National Australia Bank customers.

Last month it was claimed that he accused his pursuers of stealing money from him in later-deleted tweets.
