Unemployed teacher 'confesses' to robbing chain from gold shop

By THE NATION

 

 

A suspect in a gold robbery case has reportedly confessed to Nakhon Chai Si police on Monday (August 31) about committing the crime, as he had lost his job as a teacher and was in need of money.

 

On Saturday (August 29), Manit Kaewduang, 29, committed the alleged robbery in Nakhon Pathom province, and was arrested later with evidence, such as his motorcycle and jacket.

 

The man reportedly told police that he had been a teacher in a private school in the province. However, his contract had expired and he was jobless.

 

Since he had no money, he decided to commit the crime. He went to a gold shop in Nakhon Pathom and asked a staff to see a gold necklace. He grabbed the necklace that was shown to him and left the shop.

 

The alleged robber informed police that he had sold that necklace to another gold shop located in a local Big C branch, and purchased a new necklace from the money he received.

 

On Sunday (August 30), the robber brought the new necklace to sell in another shop in Nakhon Pathom’s Sam Phran district, and was arrested later that day.

 

The ex-teacher regretted his alleged crime as he was known to several people in the province.

...and therefore suffered an enormous loss of face when caught.

 

When it goes to trail, will the judge also give him 'five hundred lines' - i.e. to write out that number of times (same as a school kid might), "I will not commit a crime in the future if there's a chance of being caught and humiliated in public."

The author of this piece should take some English language lessons because it is rife with errors.  For example, it is stated he "confessed to ROBBING a chain" when it should be "stealing a chain". and that is only one error.  He also, "asked a staff" to see a chain.  A staff in English is usually a stick, a pole, or a rod for aid in walking or climbing or for use as a weapon.  Maybe, just maybe, it should read, "A member of the staff", but who knows.  Finally, but not the last error, he was "arrested later with evidence, such as his motorcycle and jacket".  Such as?  Suggest "including his motorcycle and jacket".

Oh, well, TIT.

'nuf sed.
