I don't think it should be dropped because he ran away for long enough, or that the stress of living as a fugitive was punishment enough. That was his choice to make.
I do think that consideration should be given to the victim and what she wants, since she is going to be dragged through the media again.
I heard something - and I don't know how true it is, but that his lawyers tried to get the case dismissed brought the spotlight back on it prompting the action.
It seems odd that he was up for an award, in a country that he's been to many times, and had residence in is arresting him *now* instead of years ago.
