Neij’s lawyer, Jonas Nilsson, confirmed the arrest to Sveriges Radio.

"Fredrik called me yesterday and explained that he was in Bangkok... he had been arrested," he said. "As far as I know, staff from the Swedish embassy are on their way to where he is. He has been told that he will be taken to Sweden."

Last week, fellow co-founder Gottfrid Svartholm Warg was sentenced in Denmark to 3.5 years in prison for illegally hacking a government database. Svartholm Warg had been living in Cambodia before he was extradited to Sweden in 2013, and he was later extradited to Denmark.

Earlier this year, Peter Sunde, the longtime spokesman for The Pirate Bay and another co-founder, was arrested in Sweden after living openly in Berlin and traveling around Europe. In March 2013, the European Court of Human Rights unanimously dismissed Sunde’s appeal as “inadmissible,” finding that the existing Swedish conviction did not violate his human rights.

In 2010, a Swedish appellate court reduced their prison sentences to between four and ten months each. However, their collective fine was increased to 46 million Swedish kronor ($6.8 million), so they appealed again. In February 2012, the Swedish Supreme Court declined to hear the case, effectively ending the legal battle in Sweden, but the government had a tough time enforcing its judgment.
