According to his own statements he was at first for some time in Spain, and later he is supposed to have lived in Argentina.  In spite of the International Arrest Warrant Posener was never found by the police and the crimes the police had suspected him of were no longer actionable against Mr Posener due to the Swedish law on statute of limitations.
