Silly boy.  Once sober, he'll find he's earned himself something like 10 years in jail and/or a 1,000,000 THB fine.  It's probably less fines and jail time to commit armed robbery for real.  He should have stuck to his story.  Sucks to be him now methinks.

Guess the guy wont be going back to Thailand for a few Years, thats if he doesn't  get jailed first.

At the end of the day he is only guilty of a false police report, not sure that means a 10 year jail term or million baht fine. Maybe they could charge him with intent to commit insurance fraud.

I've read the thread and most it was reporting that Aussie boy had been robbed.  It wasn't established till late on that he was pulling a fast one.

Ha, TV is incredible, here you have an Auzzie robbed at gunpoint by a scumbag taxi driver & his mates, & all the TV wags can do is moan about him not having a shirt on...

Words fail me ???? 

"Words fail me"

Certainly a good grasp of what actually happened failed you. Wonder why you were so eager to believe some farang and assume any Thais in his vicinity were scumbags.  Another example of Bar Stool - Crime Scene Investigation ... BS-CSI.

Is this the same bloke who was raped by a kangaroo in his home town? 

Seriously he must be given the bill for police time waisted. 100,000 baht or go to the monkey house.

Now if he had been British, we would have had all the ' hang em from the nearest tree ' posters on here and what else could be expected of lowlife British scum, blah, blah blah.

 

Posters who know his nationality, can it not just be accepted that being ' stupid ' is neither gender or nationality specific!

 

A silly drunken 19-year-old boy. Sun, sea, sand, alcohol, and testosterone. As far as the police are concerned it goes with the territory of Thailand enjoying the benefits of the tourist dollars!

Once back in Australia, the poor chap should widely post the serious incident in all australian social media, to warn his people on what Thailand is becomming.

 

When tourism and retirees numbers drastically drop, then perhaps some steps may be taken to treat visitors with a minimum of respect and decency in Thailand.

Once back in Australia, they guy should get a beating because he makes the Australian visitors look like shit.

If this scumbag did this in Australia he would be facing a maximum penalty of $10,000 or 2 years imprisonment.

 

 

Sorry - I was drunk! (I need help?)

 

Yawn! - Do not pass Go - Do not collect $200

 

Sorry - TIT - a Wai and 500 baht should fix it!

By Kritsada Mueanhawong

An Australian tourist, who had claimed he was robbed at gunpoint after being dropped off by a taxi, finally admitted that he was drunk and lost his belongings.

 

On Saturday an Australian male tourist, 19 year old Terrance John White from New South Wales, notified the receptionist at a hotel in Nai Yang where he was staying that he had been robbed at gunpoint by 4-5 suspects after being dropped by taxi near the hotel.

 

He says he gave his wallet with 20,000 baht cash to the alleged robbers brandishing firearms. The receptionist called police. Terrance was taken to the Thalang Police Station.
