Should have approached the man at the top.

Allegedly he likes a few 'borrowed' watches.

So far police have recovered only three of watches, Col Theerawat noted.

“The other two, the suspect has promised police that he will get them back later,” Col Theerawat said.

 

Have they done any rectal examination yet?

And now he's taking Epsom Salts to pass the time away.

He could be the reincarnation the sleepy general has been looking for or the stig????

what is it with covering peoples faces - show and shame them so we all know who the "Thai" criminals are - then we can avoid them if you won't lock them up

Time's up, Somchai!

I bet he wishes he could turn back the clock

I don't know why they bother  wearing "civilian" clothe, I recognize them a mile away

thank to the hair cut!

 

 

I prefer cats to dogs because there are no police cats.

Another criminal with the brain of a flea. Offering stolen goods on the internet isn't too bright. Perhaps he doesn't understand that if potential buyers can see them then investigating police or even the owner(s) could see them too.

It's because everyone in that situation, at that stage, when no legal process has been completed, has the right to anonymity.

Waiting for the second story about 'police use balaclava on other policemen to hide the fact prisoner escaped'

Come on, let’s clock his face!

There's dumb, then there's dumber then there's this guy!

It’s good for the po po most of the criminals are far below the waterline of intelligent 

Don't they realise the cops aren't out on the street they're inside on FB all day.

Guess watches??..High end? Just battery operated junk!

Classy mask, covers his face well. Most of the time they are surgical masks, or motorcycle helmets. There must be a large business for masks in Thailand, even copy masks.
