Russian fugitive on the run re-captured in Bali

A Russian fugitive has been caught in Bali after 13 days on the run.

Andrei Kovalenka was on the Interpol wanted list and had been in detention - he was in the process of being moved when he escaped on February 11.

Indonesia's authorities released CCTV video showing the 33 year old darting out of a room at a Bali detention center.

They also detained his girlfriend, Ekaterina Trubkina, who is suspected of helping him evade authorities.

Indonesia is still looking at whether the escape falls under the jurisdiction of the red notice, issued by Russia, or if it will be handled by local police.
