47 year old British man, Shane Looker was object to an international search and capture order, has spent his first night in prison as the presumed author of the horrible death of a young Thai girl, whose body had been cut up and was found inside a suitcase in November 2014.
Since then, Looker has been whereabouts unknown, although recently the Guardia Civil were aware of his presence on the island, where he is a partner in a hotel.
Sources at the armed institute confirmed they were aware of his presence but had to discover where he was living. The clue came from a car number plate when he arrived in the same car at the workshop.
Leaving the venue at the airport industrial estate, agents from the Guardia Civil detained him and placed him at the disposition of the Ibiza judge. The Central Instruction Court 3 of the National Court, opened the cause and ordered provisional prison, ahead of his extradition.
After two years and six months he was detained after being identified as the last person to see with Laxami Pook Manochat before her disappearance on November 2, 2014. Manochat worked as a dancer in a bar in the plaza Nana, where hundreds of tourists met in search of booze and sex.
A week later, her chopped up body in the suitcase was found next to the river Mae Klong, some 100 kilometres from Bangkok. A month later a Thai blog, Stickboy, identified Looker as being with her caught on the video cameras in the square, distributed previously by the Police.
He has a strong complexion, shaved and a European aspect.
Pursing the psychosis, the Thai Police found where Looker was hiding, where they found her dancing clothes - the go-go girl, and obtained samples of DNA which matched his skin which was found under the nails of the victim. Interpol took action.
Looker arrived in Thailand on October 31, 2014 and was then tracked crossing the frontier to Malaysia by train on November 24, 2014 (three weeks after the suitcase was found) and next he arrived in Ibiza to spend the summer months and had invested in a local hotel
