An up-and-coming singer was apprehended by Bangkok’s Metropolitan Police on allegations of stealing over 2 million baht worth of luxury branded goods. The arrest of 29 year old Thanandon Ramasutha, was the culmination of a meticulous police investigation following a burglary at a celebrity manager’s home in January 2024.

 

On January 29, in front of a house in the Lat Phrao 94 area of Bangkok, the police successfully detained Thanandon who was wanted on a Min Buri Criminal Court warrant dated January 26, for theft. Among the items seized were a black Balmain Paris coat, a black and white Versace coat, a pair of Hermes high-heeled sandals, a sedan used in the crime, and other items totalling 13 pieces, collectively valued at over 2 million baht.

 

The case began after a complaint was filed by celebrity manager Supachai Sriwijit through the IDMB page, who asked the Bangkok Metropolitan Police to track down the culprit who had stolen luxury branded clothes, rare bags, and shoes from his home in mid-January, within the jurisdiction of Sai Mai Police Station.

 

The investigative team, led by Police Colonel Wichit Thirakachornwong discovered one of the stolen luxury items for sale online. This online posting led to the identification of Thanandon, who had sold the stolen items at a second-hand luxury brand shop located in a popular shopping mall along the Ram Inthra expressway.
