The Russian Prosecutor General's office has many times requested Interpol to arrest Browder. "Going to the police station right now", Browder said on Twitter, adding that the police would not tell him which station he was being taken to.
"In the back of the Spanish police auto going to the station on the Russian arrest warrant", Browder wrote on Twitter Wednesday. "They won't tell me which station", Browder tweeted.

A spokeswoman for Spain's National Police told The Spain Report, however, that the arrest warrant was no longer in force and that Mr. Browder had not been arrested as such but asked to accompany officers to a police station in Madrid to check his details.
