Hide AdPolice had been unable to trace him since May of last year, with officers carrying out extensive enquiries in areas Duffy is known to frequent.
Police Scotland have now confirmed that Duffy has now been arrested in the Cumbernauld area and is currently being treated in hospital.
His condition is not thought to be serious.
