A Russian DJ wanted for a hit-and-run which seriously injured a motorcycle driver has been arrested on Koh Phangan.
Tourist police arrested Vigen Atoian, 36, at a house in Ban Tai on Friday.
According to police, Mr Atoian worked as a DJ in several tourist provinces in Thailand. He had recently returned to Koh Phangan four days ago to work at a party, as he was popular among Russian tourists. He went by the name DJ Vigen on Instagram.
The arrest warrant, issued on July 30 last year, stemmed from a road crash in which the suspect, driving a Fortuner, hit a motorcycle, causing serious injuries to the motorcyclist.
