Anti-virus software guru John McAfee has said he wants to return to the US and live a "normal life" during an internet broadcast from a detention centre in Guatemala, where he is fighting deportation to Belize.
"I simply would like to live comfortably day by day, fish, swim, enjoy my declining years," the 67-year-old said during answers to what he claimed were journalists' questions supplied via email.
Mr McAfee also said he had fainted and hit his head last week after not eating, and smoking "almost non-stop".
The former technology tycoon was rushed to a hospital for what his lawyer said were two mild heart attacks just hours after his arrest at a hotel in Guatemala City last week.
Police in neighbouring Belize want to question Mr McAfee about the fatal shooting of neighbour Gregory Faul, a fellow American who lived near his home on a Belizean island.
Mr McAfee and Mr Faul are understood to have had several arguments over the behaviour of Mr McAfee's dogs.
Mr McAfee acknowledges that his pets were unruly, but denies killing Mr Faull.
He had been in hiding for three weeks before crossing into Guatemala with his 20-year-old girlfriend to evade authorities.
Mr McAfee was admitted to hospital soon after his arrest He was arrested on Wednesday for illegally entering the country and authorities said they would seek to deport him to Belize.
After Guatemala rejected a request for asylum, his lawyers filed several legal appeals in an effort to block his deportation.
It could take months to resolve the matter.
Fredy Viana, a spokesman for Guatemala's Immigration Department, said that before the agency looks into the request to allow Mr McAfee to stay in Guatemala, a judge must first deal with the appeal asking that authorities make sure Mr McAfee's physical integrity is protected.
"We won't look into (allowing him to stay) until the other appeal is resolved," Mr Viana said. "The law gives me 30 days to resolve the issue."
Mr McAfee sold his stake in the anti-virus software company that is named after him and moved to Belize about three years ago.
He told The New York Times in 2009 that he had lost all but $4m (£2.5m) of his $100m fortune in the US financial crisis. However, a story on the Gizmodo website quoted him as describing that claim as "not very accurate at all".
