Authorities in Bangkok have detained a controversial Chinese businessman who is the subject of an international arrest warrant for allegedly running an illegal online casino, Thai police said Saturday.
She Zhijiang, 40, has been on the run from Chinese authorities since 2012, according to Chinese media.
Thai police said She's Thai visa had been cancelled after he was taken into immigration custody on Wednesday night, pending an extradition request. An Interpol red notice published May 2021 and obtained by AFP says She is facing criminal charges in China related to running a casino and could face a maximum penalty of 10 years in jail.
The notice adds that online gambling websites including Hongshulin, Yigou and Yiyou International were set up and 330,000 gamblers were recruited.
