See boing-boing link below, in forwarded post.

If this turns out to be true, it's a bit of a shocker.
The Register story
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2005/01/21/dec_cracker_suspect_arrest/
carried little more info than the BBC one. Nothing other than
the boingboing entry seems to have hit the web yet - wait,
scratch that, it's up on /.

but there is still no real conformation of the story :-/
