Chinese murder suspect arrested in Thailand after 36 years living under false identity
Thai authorities arrested Zhu Zhishan, 67, in Pattaya on September 13 after he was wanted in connection with a 1990 murder in China. According to reports, Zhishan lived in Thailand under a false identity for over three decades, obtaining a Thai ID card, building a multimillion-baht business and property portfolio, and fathering twins who hold Thai citizenship. His concealment unraveled when he applied for a visa to travel to China.
