Thai transwoman betrayed by friend and caught in Hong Kong cannabis bust

[webfact]

A Thai man allegedly betrayed a transwoman friend by hiding cannabis in her luggage, leading to her arrest in Hong Kong. More than 30 other victims of the Thai man came forward to expose his fraudulent behaviour.

 

The Facebook account, Pat Catty, shared a story of her transwoman friend on January 25 and urged netizens to be aware of a deceiving Thai man, identified as Get. The Facebook user accused Get of tricking her transwoman friend named Cindy into smuggling cannabis into Hong Kong.

 

According to her Facebook account, Cindy planned to visit Hong Kong to pray at several temples. Get invited Cindy to go with him instead of her mother and Cindy agreed.

 

At the check-in desk before departure, Get asked Cindy to carry his luggage, claiming it was overweight. Cindy agreed and allowed Get to put his bag into Cindy’s. At Hong Kong Airport, Get did not wait for Cindy and went straight to immigration.

"Get" is now "Got", like GOT busted....

Hopefully, the Thai government will work with Chinese/Hong Kong officials to expedite the release of this wrongly accused Thai citizen.

 

 Clearly, the video/still shows Get handling the two kilos of Ganja.

Hope Get get's his just deserts

Low life scumbag.

Dumb as Cindy!

Could well be a load of BS too, pretty well every drug smuggler who gets busted at an airport has a cock & bull story about someone put the gear into their bags and they had no knowledge and have been set up. Going to HK to pray at temples sounds like even more BS.

You can't be serious. The image clearly shows nothing out of the ordinary.

So Cindy's bag went through X'ray in Bangkok prior to departure without the packages being noticed?

Sad, very sad. The (typical) trick, heard about before. Always be (very) careful about carrying stuff or luggage for other people.

Indeed... my Wife sometimes does the same with friends....   though I believe praying in temples is a euphemism for shopping & cafe-hopping...

Pretty sure they have plenty of temples in Thailand.

A friend's husband in Germany travels to Thailand annually for the temples also.
