Except he's never been actually under threat of arrest until now. He's been "living as a fugitive" and "moving from place to place" for attention-whoring purposes, not because he needs to.
How do you distinguish between living as a fugitive for "attention-whoring purposes," and having legitimate concerns for one's freedom and well-being? I would be pretty damned paranoid if I were in his shoes, even prior to the most recent release, and all of my hats are made of natural fiber.
Well for one thing, if you're genuinely on the run then moving from country to country doesn't decrease your chances of getting nabbed, it significantly increases them.
