Transsexual Suspected in Robbery of Bahraini Tourist

[webfact]

 

On September 28, 2023, at 01:00 AM, Mr. Hasan (last name withheld), a 55-year-old Bahraini national, reported a theft to Lt. Col. Akkarapong Saenputawong, the Deputy Chief of Investigation at Pattaya City Police Station.

 

Mr. Hasan claimed that he had been the victim of a robbery where he lost over 7,000 Thai Baht and approximately 5,000 Thai Baht worth of foreign currency, including 60 Danish Krone, along with several important documents, reported Siam Rath.

 

The incident occurred while he was traveling on a double-decker cooperative minibus.

 

According to Mr. Hasan, he boarded the minibus on Bua Khao Soi, and during the journey, two women, one of whom was a transsexual, boarded as well, sitting on both sides of him. One of the women struck up a conversation and became friendly.

When they reached his hotel and he was about to exit the vehicle, the transsexual woman seized the opportunity to steal his bag. 

 

Realizing his bag had been stolen, Mr. Hasan suspected the transsexual woman of being the perpetrator and attempted to detain her. Unfortunately, both women quickly fled the scene, eluding his pursuit. This prompted him to promptly report the incident to the police.

 

Lt. Col. Akkarapong Saenputawong recorded the complaint and initiated an investigation, including reviewing surveillance footage to identify and apprehend the suspects for legal proceedings.

Ladyboys in my experience, apart from being very confused about their gender, also tend to be criminals here, especially if not attractive. I did not know they were also very stupid. Who does crimes in an area where you should know if there are cameras etc? There are cameras "everywhere" in Patong, Pattaya etc and they know that but........they just confused stupid, criminals IMHO.

Many people still don't think of CCTV. My favourite tale, reported on this site some time ago, was of a woman who owned a women's clothing store and who installed CCTV to catch shoplifters, but instead it caught her stealing from a customer's bag while she was trying on a dress in a cubicle.

Pretty stupid and irrelevant comment to make, when he was on a bus and the crooks made all the advances. He was targeted. And what led you to think he was rich. Rich Arabs don't go to Pattaya. They go to places where they can enjoy opulence and luxury, which are rare - read non-existent - commodities in Pattaya.

Homosexuality is illegal in the UAE, yet it's a very popular destination Thai ladyboys go to ply their trade. You don't have to look very far to find ladyboys in UAE. 

 

And the ladyboys have to travel as men to get through immigration, they'll be turned away if they try to enter in their normal female clobber. But it seems that once they're there, it's all good. Everyone just pretends it's not gay, and that it was just a massage.

Ladyboys in my experience,

are great fun to hang out with...will drink you under the table and nice too look at

 

Have friends that work in Cabaret show and i take tourists to enjoy and meet them

 

One buys me lunch when we hang out and even holds my motorbike when i go home

 

Never had sexual exps with them--just boils down to spending time with fun nice people

 

They dont ask me for money-unlike the thai ladies and I commend them for living a life they choose to, as im sure it can be problematic at times and stereotypical, as we see on this thread

 

"Mickey" has a nice house in gated community--a scoopy and nice honda car....giant tv and all and takes care of her mom back in lampang..has also traveled the world.....has always been respectful to me as i have been to her......but I guess im the 1%.....esp on this website it seems..

i got a double decker last week....cost me an extra 500...still walk with a limp..but was worth it ????

[kwilco]

"Transsexual Suspected in Robbery of Bahraini Tourist" - so the implication is that Transexuals are more likely to be criminals?

It's one of the most erroneous translations for what is colloquially known as a "Baht bus".

"double-decker cooperative minibus"

Technically in Thai it's a "song taeo", a two row/
bench minibus aka rebuild pickup.

How the hell can such misleading translations make it to the news??

 

So it's nothing than the millionth pick pocketing Kathoey on a Baht bus.

Having sex with a lady boy is not gay.

You mean what was he going to do with the 60 Danish Krone ??

 

Spend it when he's next in Denmark ?

 

When I travel I have various different currencies in my Passport Wallet (along with SIM Cards / Credit and Bank Cards / Different ID's etc from various countries)....

 

I'm overseas now and of the top of my head can guess that I have 9 different currencies in my Passport Wallet.

 

It's not odd at all that this guy had currency from a country other than the one he was visiting.
