He was tracked down after being the target of 3 different police operations, Operation Purple Obsidian, Operation Falcon and Operation Belanos and was subsequently arrested. Kelley was arrested when agents from the Metropolitan Police, National Crime Agency and officers from the local Dyfed Powys Police turned up at the door of his home.
