And look how our countries turned to shit after that time. And how we've all moved out here to escape that nonsense. Personal anecdote, Nearly 10 years back, I realized I was having blackouts after 3 big bottles of Chang, woke up a couple of times with monsters in my bed, so switched to Leo and the problem went away. Maybe the 'monsters' were drugging my Changs and I should make a complaint to the police? Edited September 10, 2018 by BritManToo 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should know by now that, in Thailand, regardless of whether you commit a crime - any crime - a judicious application of a brown envelpe to the RP will make the issue go away. It can easily turn the perpetrator into the victim. W've all seen it many times. To deny a much is either naive or wilfully condoning this practice.

I prefer justice Thai style, to justice UK style. Woman (drunk?) goes somewhere alone with a man, has sex, regrets it later, I don't see a crime. In Thailand, If I keep my mouth shut and am not violent, the police ignore me, barring the occasional 200bht helmet fine. Which is one of the reasons I'm here! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was supposedly already reported it to the police at the hotel. Right before the cousin instinctively runs through the streets of Patong where he just happens to see the second woman being forced into a taxi upon which he slams one of the Albanians up against a wall and then frees the two captive women from the car with the all the bad guys running away (including the taxi driver running away from his taxi) The best line of the story...(and there are a lot of good lines) was where her fiancé (after the tuktuk unceremoniously dumps them on the front lawn of the hotel) breaks down and screams “Why did you bring me a dead fiancé” Edited September 10, 2018 by Airalee 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have often been treated with respect by the police. 2 accidents that had me involved.. no bias because I was a foreigner.. no deviation of the rules. Just treated how i should be by the law. Of course the jaded people will tell you that never happens. You can't bribe yourself out of all crimes plenty of examples about that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just riding on the wave of bad news and making a buck. Sorry unlike you I don't believe everything that was printed. The poor French black guy recently was almost locked up for rape.. but in the end that could not be proven. So yea.. I do believe people make false claims and I don't believe everything I read. I also believe that some things do happen, just a bit hard to know what is real and what is fake. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, in this modern age a healthy dose of cynicism is required from both angles. That we're hearing of this news now is reason to remain skeptical, however, its not sufficient reason to suggest the reported events did not happen. We simply cannot know. Too much smoke and too many daggers has made us (the public) highly skeptical of any news to such a degree its almost impossible to believe anything.

Thaidream Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 I absolutely believe the story about being spiked as I once had a drink spiked in Amsterdam and then robbed. I simply stopped in a bar for one drink- went to the bathroom- and that was the last thing I remembered until found lying in a side street with no memory of what happened. The effects of the spiked drink were scary and lasted for about a week. About $400 lighter- I never reported it to the police and got out of Amsterdam as quick as possible. I do not think the girls were abducted for human trafficking. IMHO- I believe it was a kidnapping and attempted ransom. If you read the whole story- the Russian man indicated that if the male fiance ever wanted to see the girls again- he should follow them. The girls do not fit the profile of trafficked women but the fact that there were Russians and Albanians involved does. They did report it to the police when it happened but why the story is making the news now maybe the Kho Tao alleged rape which made international news. I never forgot my drugging and have a friend who lives long term in Thailand and was drugged by some 'ladies' outside Nana Plaza many years ago. To this day- I always watch the person handling my beer open it and never leave the beer to go to the bathroom- I either finish it or take it with me. I only drink mixed drinks in bars that I know and have been before. It is amazing how paranoid something like this makes a person . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If him reported it to the police the police would really had checked it. There are Farang Police Volunteers also who would had get the report. The police would had looked for the women. And 100% they had made a bloodcheck in hospital after they found they. Also they had searched for the russian couple. A publicity searcher again. When I readed the following I asked myself, can it be that she don't know her own age? Early 30's or 23,24 is a big different. To much BS in this story. "Then in her early 30s, the holiday was a get-together before she and her fiancé emigrated from South Africa to New Zealand." And more down in the articel:"He usually knows where I am and his sister was 23, 24 at the time." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
