Two Taiwanese death suspects fleeing from Hong Kong were arrested by emigration authorities at Suvarnabhumi Airport on Wednesday night.
The incarceration was prompted after the Immigration Bureau received a warning about the situation from Interpol.
Yau Shu-Ko Enoch and Shimeobi Chinedu Nelson were reported to have committed a murder resulting in death in Hong Kong at 5. 30am on Wednesday, said Pol Maj Gen Choengron Rimphadee, captain of Immigration Bureau 2.
On the same day, officers arrested the defendants at about 6. 40pm at the airports. They were denied admittance under the Immigration Act and were taken to a detention place.
Hong Kong Special Administrative Region authorities were scheduled to arrive to get the offenders up to the place for legitimate trials at 1pm on Thursday, Pol Maj Gen Chengron said.
