An Italian lawyer who acted as a consultant to Saddam Hussein's defense team has been arrested in Spain on suspicion of fraud, money laundering and practicing law without a licence on a warrant issued by Britain, officials said Tuesday.

Giovanni di Stefano was arrested Monday night in a mansion in Palma on Spain's Mediterranean island of Mallorca, a police official said.

Di Stefano was hospitalized after his arrest and will undergo surgery, the official said without elaborating. She spoke from Palma on condition on anonymity, in line with department rules.

Di Stefano has been living in Palma but the official said she did not know for how long.

An Interior Ministry statement said that between 2004 and 2009 di Stefano allegedly earned large sums of money in Britain, apparently without being licensed to practice law in that country. The statement quoted the European arrest order on the basis of which di Stefano was arrested.

In an earlier incident, the Italian was hired in 2003 by the wife of a man serving a life term and charged her 120,000 pounds for an appeal he never filed, the ministry said. It said di Stefano faces a total of 18 counts of wrongdoing in Britain.
