The Criminal Court Monday ordered extradition of a convicted British rapist to England.
The court ordered Paul Martin Smithers to be extradited within a month.
Smithers was arrested at the Suvarnabhumi International Airport on November 2 last year following a request by the British embassy. The embassy sent a request to the Thai government on August 28 2009 to monitor for and arrest Smithers.
He was convicted by the Cardiff Court in a rape case.
