A Russian man wanted for killing a compatriot in a hit-and-run accident back home was captured in Pattaya.
Idar Garifulen was taken into custody at the Chonburi Immigration Office Feb. 8 after agents were informed by the Russian embassy that his passport had been canceled.
Garifulen fled Russia following hitting a man with his car and fleeing the scene of the accident.
He was processed for deportation home to face charges.
