BANGKOK, Oct. 16 (UPI) -- Thai police released the name of a Canadian man they suspect of posting Internet images of himself allegedly having sex with children.

Thai police said the suspect was Christopher Paul Neil, a 32-year-old Canadian English teacher who was believed to be hiding in Thailand after working in South Korea, the Bangkok Post reported.

Early Tuesday, Interpol released a picture of Neil taken when he entered Thailand and various media also showed cropped images taken from the Internet and said to be of the suspect.

Interpol Secretary-General Ronald Noble said Neil is a suspect in the rapes of boys in Cambodia and Vietnam and Thailand was the "center of an international manhunt," the Pattaya Daily News reported.
