Anyhow, if this bloke was actually wanted in Thailand they would have had him years ago, I'm sure.
They did have him, they let him go on bail, and he fled the country. He was discovered many years later living in the Philippines and the Filipinos arrested him on the Thai warrant but the Thais didn't extradite him.
Andrew Drummond has speculated that maybe the Thais had lost the bloody clothes and knife in the intervening years and did not want to lose face by returning him to Thailand and then admitting that the evidence was gone.
