Airport baggage handler, 27 year old Abdullah Hayee Mayeh, was arrested with a bluetooth speaker on October 12 after his robbery was recorded on video.

 

CCTV cameras caught him trying to open the luggage of a passenger of Jetstar Airways flight on October 10 at Bay 15 at Phuket International Airport while loading luggage onto the aircraft parked on the tarmac.

Abdullah Hayee Mayeh now known by his new nickname Mr. Paper Face.

Accomplices in the x-ray division who marked the bag??

Is Abdullah Thai? Did he have a work permit?

Be more interesting to know how many weren't caught and still

nicking staff unimpeded.....

 

The offender has a blank look on his face.

You must be new here. Many Abdullahs here. Huge Muslim population down south. Astounding you are not aware of this!

if a farang he could not hide his face,but he would not have the job anyway.would love to see his passport photo and what what grade and colour of paper can you use

Abdullah needs to face Shariah law = chop his hands off !

I am sure they could have squeezed a few more cops into the photo.

I agree but it will probably be a 500 Baht fine since he confessed 

 

no pointing, the cops obviously haven't spotted him yet.

 

here's a clue boys...  take a look behind that piece of paper...

Good they got him. It’s now safe again to send my beer via checked luggage

The ones that couldn't  fit in are in the photo on the desk on the left.

So they picked a Thai Muslim, almost a foreigner Huh!

Perhaps they thought it would look a bit daft pointing at a thief hiding his face?

If I were going to steal something from baggage, I certainly wouldn't choose a bag from a Jetstar flight!

can hardly be called a foreigner, since Thai Muslims always made up 20% of the local population in Phuket

I'm not calling him a foreigner as such, I'm calling him a scapegoat because of his religion.

Yes a farang could, foreigners are not forced to show their faces.

You're just as wrong with that, too.  Who do you think was the real thief that was caught on CCTV?

A couple of troll posts have been removed

If you watch the video, I want to know who is filming it and who is the guy with the clip board? The video isn't CCTV.

 

 

I'm speechless..

 

Aren't this photos to show the perp with cops standing by to point fingers at the suspected party.

 

What good does the shown photo do when the suspect has his face behind a standard sheet of paper?
