Thai PM agrees to send Russian arms suspect to US
None
Thai Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva said suspected Russian arms dealer Viktor Bout could be extradited to the United States to face terrorism charges later on Tuesday, a few days before his detention is due to expire.
"It should be today, if it is possible," Abhisit told reporters, adding that the cabinet had earlier on Tuesday officially acknowledged a US extradition request. (Reuters)
