A Swedish woman wanted on allegations of fraud against the public under an Interpol Red Notice was arrested in Phuket yesterday, August 4, after immigration police tracked her to the island. Investigators located the Swedish national in Wichit, Phuket, at about 2pm yesterday before approaching and verifying her identity. She later obtained an extension from Phuket Immigration allowing her to remain in the country until August 31. She has been transferred to Phuket Immigration and will be deported to Sweden in accordance with immigration procedures. Similarly, back in January, police arrested a Russian national wanted under an Interpol warrant after locating him hiding in the city centre of Phuket.
