Internet paedophile traced to Thailand
A PAEDOPHILE accused of sexually abusing young children in internet pictures released by Interpol has been identified as an English language teacher who is now in Thailand.
The man, allegedly photographed abusing 12 young boys in Vietnam and Cambodia, was identified by five sources from three continents as working at a school in South Korea, Interpol said.
His name, nationality, date of birth, passport number and current and previous places of work have been established.
The international police organisation released a picture of the man who flew from Seoul to Bangkok International Airport on Thursday, where he was caught on security cameras.
Ronald Noble, Interpol's secretary general, said: "Thailand is at the centre of an international manhunt."
More than 350 people contacted Interpol after a plea to help identify the wanted man.
