Pattaya station chief Apichai Krobpetch announced the arrest of a Walking Street woman who stole money from the room of a Yemeni tourist during Songkran.

 

Arrested was Busaba "Jack" Kanthiya, 35, who was found at Patra Home in Soi Bon Kai.

 

Mr Al Safi Saeed Al Safi Ba Wazir, 33, had invited Jack to his room at Max Hotel in the early hours of April 15th.

 

While he was in the shower following the conclusion to their activity she disappeared.

 

Gone too was 300 dollars and a bunch of rials totaling 32,000 baht when converted to Thai money. Also taken were two credit cards.

 

Jack admitted everything saying she needed money to pay off debts and other personal matters.

 

She has been detained on a charge of theft in the hours of darkness that is considered more serious than that which might occur during the daytime.

Surely, theft is theft whatever the lighting conditions? Can someone enlighten me.

This law needs updating since the invention of oil lamps.

Section 335 of the Criminal Code B.E. 2499. The punishment would have been even more severe if she had stolen an ox or a buffalo.

No wonder the buffaloes get regular mentions in bar-girl letters.

Having said that, is it dependent on whether it's day or night time as to the punishment?
