Former boxer Scott Harrison to serve prison term in Scotland

Former champion boxer Scott Harrison has returned to Scotland to serve the remainder of a four-year prison term imposed in Spain over assault charges.

The 38-year-old, from Glasgow, was extradited last year after the Spanish authorities claimed he left the country in 2012 before his sentence began.

A message on his Twitter account said: “Scott’s now back in Scotland. Happy to finally see Stacey and his four kids after a year in Spain.”

The former WBO Featherweight champion is understood to have been transferred to Glasgow’s Barlinnie Prison.
