webfact Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 Two Chinese nabbed for stealing bags at Suvarnabhumi airport Picture: BEC Tero BANGKOK, 5th November 2018 (NNT) – Two Chinese tourists have been arrested at Suvarnabhumi international airport as they were leaving Thailand with luggage stolen from other passengers. Suvarnabhumi airport police apprehended Li Tze Yueng, 35, and Lou Jieying, 22, at the airport on Saturday (November 3) as they were waiting for their flight to Hong Kong. Mr Li is a Canadian citizen of Chinese origin, while Ms Lou is a Chinese from mainland China. The arrest followed a complaint filed by an American with airport police. She said she could not find her travel bag after arriving in the Bangkok’s airport and waiting for the luggage at a conveyor belt for incoming passengers. Police checked CCTV footages at the baggage claim area and other locations inside Suvarnabhumi and found the two suspects loading a number of bags on their carts before leaving the airport. The owners of the luggage were contacted by police and they confirmed the bags found with the suspects were theirs, police added. Police also took them to a hotel in Ratchathewi area to search their room and found more bags stolen from a Thai tourist returning to Thailand from South Korea. -- nnt 2018-11-05 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post prakhonchai nick Posted November 5, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted November 5, 2018 Apart from clothes and the like, what did they expect to find. Any traveller packing valuable items in their main luggage must be pretty stupid. Thats what carry on bags are for. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post khunbillmex Posted November 5, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted November 5, 2018 "...as they were leaving Thailand with luggage stolen from other passengers. " Let me get this right - so they steal the bags in the arrival hall (how did they get in there?) and then go upstairs to departure where they check-in for a flight to HKG with all the stolen bags which presumably will make them over limit thus incurring excess bag fees. Hopefully the contents of the bags outweigh the cost of extra the extra bags. If not then these gentlemen need to rethink their business plan. 5 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were identified within 24 hours from CCTV footage and entry data. Then they were arrested on their way out, presumably several days later, as their passports were flagged. That is why there were more stolen bags found in downtown Bangkok. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NextStationBangkok Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 Lee started his business here, immediately after arrival. Yesterday there was a news that, a woman attacked a bus driver for not stopping, and the bus plunged into a river and all dead. They need social education than productivity in better biological and materials. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some good news on this. I am a frequent traveller to West African countries. It is important you keep your boarding pass as the last security check done by a security guard is to check your luggage tags to your boarding pass as you go through the final exit door of the airport; simple nothing stolen. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Megascott Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 I once caught Chinese tourists stealing my suitcase, thought nothing of out since they were elderly. You should always keep your bag receipt just incase and if You ever see people tearing the airline ticket off of the bags right away they should be suspect.

Their government is aware of this and is setting up this system (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_Credit_System) It will take generations to educate people. Good luck to the Chinese government. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
