webfact Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 Officers from Nong Prue Police Station questioned two foreign men and a woman in connection with the disappearance of German businessman Hans Peter Mack.

The 62 year old real estate tycoon left his house in his bronze/grey Mercedes-Benz with a registration number ญศ 7146. He wore a black shirt, black shorts, and black shoes. The last sighting of Mack was on July 4 at 12.41pm as he was driving his vehicle near Chaiyapruk Soi 3 Road in the Bang Lamong district of Chon Buri province.

Thairath today states the investigation involving this man and a 15 year old girl was never concluded - so never any conviction. Also - to clarify - appears Pattaya News maybe got lost in translation - it was the Thai man charged with the offence of human trafficking, this German man Hans Peter Mack was charged as the 'customer' of the underage girl; as does the Nation state "Hans Peter Walter Mack, 56, who was allegedly a customer" 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post MarcelV Posted July 10, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted July 10, 2023 How many ways are there to spell a name? Peter/Petter, Walter/Ralter and Mack/Mach. They make for a total of 2^3=8 combinations. If you combine the fact his first name can be spelled with or without a dash, you get an even higher number of 2^4=16 different names. Fwiw, just my 2 cents. 1 3 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geisha Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 I might be missing something, but how do the family etc know he’s been missing after 24 hours ? If he is, maybe he’s done a runner, I would dump the car too if it was a grey Mercedes. He might be over the border or in hiding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
