A CCTV camera at Phra That Doi Suthep Temple in the southern province of Chiang Mai captured a Thai man stealing a pair of shoes from a South Korean tourist. The man entered the temple wearing white flipflops but left wearing black ones.

 

The leader of the security team at the temple, Porramate Ngamchuen, told Channel 7 that the theft took place on Monday night, February 5, when a group of South Korean tourists visited the temple. A tour guide reported to him that a South Korean man’s shoes disappeared from the shoe rack outside the temple.

 

According to the tour guide, only an old pair of white shoes was found near the spot where the foreign victim initially placed his shoes. This led Porramate to suspect theft, as similar incidents happened at the temple several times before.

 

Porramate said he checked the security camera and discovered a suspicious Thai man. The man was seen entering the temple with his girlfriend, wearing white flipflops. However, the footage when he left the temple showed that he selected black flipflops instead of his white ones before leaving the area.
