Jonathan Fairfield Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 Algerian arrested for stealing from Korean tourist in Pattaya An Algerian man has been arrested for allegedly stealing a bag with about Bt38,900 worth of cash and other valuables from a South Korean tourist in Pattaya. Pattaya police chief Pol Colonel Apichai Krobphet said Mouloud Sadat, 53, was arrested at 8.30pm at the front of Soi Na Klua 33 on Pattaya-Na Klua road on Friday. His arrest came after Seung Chul Lee, 45, from South Korea, filed a complaint with the police station at 7.30pm on April 17 that his Prada bag was stolen while he was dining at a restaurant in front of Soi Na Klua 27. Seung told police that his bag was worth Bt60,000 and it had a pair of eyeglasses worth Bt10,000 and a power bank worth Bt2,000, as well as Bt20,000 in cash and 650,000 Korean won, or about Bt18,900. Police identified Sadat after viewing security-camera footage. After Sadat was arrested, police found the bag, the glasses and power bank at his rented room, but the cash had been all spent.

"but the cash had been all spent."................??????????????? With a reputation like the Thai (Pattaya) Police have........... Can't you just imagine that the story could have read -------- "Police found the bag and 'played' FINDERS, KEEPERS..... with the money" Quite comparable to stories where police raid 'Home Card Games' and the story reads ---- "And 80 Baht was seized and held as evidence........ " WHERE is the rest of the 'table stakes'???? ... LOL ... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
