Immigration police in Phuket arrested a 26-year-old Ukrainian national who was on an international wanted list by Interpol through a "red notice." He is suspected of being involved in a cryptocurrency scam. According to Thairath.co.th, the suspect was apprehended by police after his name was included on Interpol's list.

The man had been staying illegally on Phuket for over eight years and could not leave the island due to lack of documentation. As per information from chiangraitimes.com, the suspect was arrested for involvement in a cryptocurrency scam.

Police reported that the man used various methods to deceive potential investors by offering high returns on investments in cryptocurrency. At present, the suspect is under investigation.

The police are conducting an inquiry and collecting evidence to be handed over to the court. It is expected that the process will continue until a decision on his further fate is made.

Sources clarify that he was arrested at Interpol's request as they were seeking him for involvement in an international fraud scheme. Currently, he is in custody and will be interrogated for additional information.
