Czech fugitive spreading HIV nabbed
A Czech fugitive wanted in his homeland for knowingly spreading HIV to multiple victims has been arrested on a Thai resort island after living in the country for more than a year, police said yesterday.
Zdenek Pfeifer, 49, was detained at his apartment on the tourist island of Phuket on Tuesday evening, Thai Interpol said in a statement.
His arrest came after reports warning of his presence in Thailand went viral on Thai social media this week.
“Thai police will contact Czech Interpol once he has been prosecuted for local violations,” Thai Interpol said, adding he was arrested for illegally overstaying his visa.
Czech media reports said Zdenek fled the country in June 2015 after he was charged with deliberately infecting more than a dozen men with HIV, including a minor.
Colonel Krissana Pattanacharoen, deputy national police spokesman, said Pfeiffer faced “sex offense” charges back home. He first entered Thailand in June 2015 on a tourist visa which expired in August 2015.
