The case concerns events alleged to have taken place in Marbella at the beginning of the summer. 

Darren Hoolahan was reported missing on June 10 following a meeting in the San Pedro de Alcántara area of Marbella.

According to The Sun, police believe he was then transported to a remote area near Estepona, around 12 miles away, and held against his will. 

Detectives reportedly identified the location but found no trace of the missing 37-year-old. 

Darren is the younger brother of Wes, a Norwich City legend and one of the club's most popular modern-era players. 

The father-of-two, from Dublin's north inner city, had been living in Marbella for several years before he was reported missing and worked in the nightlife industry. 

A fifth suspect in the case was initially released and ordered to report to court twice a month. 

However, they were subsequently imprisoned due to an international arrest warrant issued by Spain's National Court over a different matter.

Wes joined the Canaries from Blackpool in 2008 and remained at Carrow Road for a decade, making 352 appearances and scoring 54 goals in all competitions. 

The 44-year-old helped City win the League One title in 2009/10, secure promotion to the Premier League the following season and return to the top flight through the 2015 Championship play-off final at Wembley. 

After leaving Norwich in 2018, the Irish international had spells with West Bromwich Albion and Australian side Newcastle Jets before finishing his professional playing career with Cambridge United. 

He has since played for Doncaster City and Cringleford Vets.
