Bangkok - A Thai aviation engineer convicted of spying in Cambodia who was set free Monday said on his return to Bangkok that he was victim in a diplomatic spat between Thailand and Cambodia. "I feel like a victim," said Sivarak Chutipong, a Thai national jailed in Preysar Prison since November 12, who was released Monday morning following a royal pardon.
A Cambodian court found Sivarak guilty of spying for passing on the flight details of Thailand's fugitive former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra to a Thai embassy official last month.
Upon arrival at Suvarnabhumi Airport in Bangkok, Sivarak said the first thing he wanted to do was to contact Kamrob Palwatwichai, the former first secretary of the Thai embassy who asked him for Thaksin's flight details.
