Officers from the Crime Suppression Division arrested Sergey Sergeyvich Medvedev, 31, at Soi Sukhumvit 56 in Bangkok's Phra Khanon district on February 2. Police then took him to search his rented condo room at City Condominium's City Gate building.
The Royal Thai Police force was asked to locate and arrest the Russian by the US Department of Homeland Security late last year.
The Russian fled to Thailand six years ago, said police.
