A retired Japanese crime boss has been arrested in Thailand after photos of his yakuza tattoos and a missing little finger went viral, ending more than 14 years on the run.
The images were shared more than 10,000 times and caught the attention of Japanese police, who alerted the Thai authorities.
Shigeharu Shirai, 72, was apprehended while he was chilling shopping in the central market town of Lopburi.
