Seems like it was just a matter of time since he was put on Interpol's list back in March of this year:



Breaking his long silence on the case, Prime Minister HE yesterday called on police to bring to justice the former Bavet town governor and convicted gunman Chhouk Bandith.

“In the case of Chhouk Bandith, if police do not arrest him, they are wrong,” he said. “There is a red notice from Interpol. There must be arrests.”

HE’s comments came in response to the issuance of the Interpol red notice in March, and after Bandith’s three victims – garment workers whom he shot in front of hundreds of witnesses during a protest – petitioned parliament last week.

The writing isn't too clear, but was the PM's recent warning that led to him handing himself in.

Silence, exile, and cunning.

Fair enough, I do have my issues with Engrish. So they cannot find the fucker for over two years but the moment the PM issues a warning they suddenly know where he is???? KOW indeed.
