Schwimmer himself even got in the act by posting a picture of himself carry a crate of beers.

Since the appeal, Husseini was eventually traced arrested and charged in the Slough area and bailed to attend Blackpool,Lancs magistrates court today.

He failed to turn up and District Judge Jane Goodwin issued a warrant for his arrest.

Prosecutor Carl Gaffney successfully applied for the warrant.

Husseini was not legally represented.
