A Chinese fugitive wanted on corruption and fraud charges was arrested and deported after trying to extend his visa in Pattaya.
Qifeng Liu, 46, was locked up at the Chonburi Immigration Office Jan. 25 when – while trying to extend his stay under his own name – authorities found a letter from the Chinese embassy that, should he turn up, he should be detained.
He faces corruption and property charges at home.
The embassy was contacted and he was processed for deportation.
