A Turkish man who was on an international Interpol red notice was arrested in Phuket.
Phuket Immigration told the Phuket Express that earlier this week they were contacted from Turkish officers to revoke a permit to stay in Thailand for a suspect identified only as Mr. Taskin. 32, a Turkish national. His passport was subsequently canceled.
He has been identified in his country as a dangerous person and has a Interpol red notice following an arrest warrant issued in October of last year in Turkey. He is being accused of carrying a gun and ammunition in public without permission.
The Turkish man will be deported, said Thai police. The suspect did not release any statement as of press time. Phuket Immigration did not state where he was arrested.
