Popular Post webfact Posted March 26 Popular Post Share Posted March 26 The two Russian men on a graffiti rampage after a booze-fuelled escapade in Patong, Phuket, have been arrested. Police Major General Saranyu Chamnarnrat, Deputy Chief of the Provincial Police Region 8, revealed the arrest of the Russian vandals. Identified as 23 year old Evgenii Egorov and 22 year old Oleg Shirshov, the spray-painting mischievous pair were nabbed from a dormitory on Thaweewong Road in the Patong subdistrict of Kathu district at around 4pm yesterday. Their reckless spree involved defacing a footpath with the cryptic letters HRDSHT, already marked with a no-parking sign, leaving authorities puzzled. But their graffiti frenzy didn’t end there, they allegedly struck again, targeting a restaurant sign near the Government Savings Bank’s Patong branch on Phra Baramee Road. A damning video of their nocturnal antics went viral, triggering a wave of social media outrage. The duo, captured on a motorcycle, seemed oblivious to the storm their actions would brew. However, their trail of spray paint led police straight to their doorstep, where they were promptly apprehended. Under interrogation, the inebriated culprits confessed to their deeds, attributing their folly to alcohol-induced impulsivity. Pol. Maj. Gen. Saranyu revealed that Egorov was behind the wheel of the rented motorcycle, with Shirshov riding pillion. While Egorov took sole responsibility for the graffiti spree, Shirshov was present but claimed innocence, reported Bangkok Post. Facing charges of vandalism collusion, the pair were swiftly handed over to Patong Police Station for due legal process. They are scheduled to attend the Phuket Provincial Court this afternoon. In related news, the violent Russian woman who blamed her period for assaulting a pregnant Thai woman in Koh Pha Ngan has been fined 500 baht and handed a suspended 15-day jail sentence. Immigration authorities in Surat Thani are deliberating whether to revoke her visa due to the criminal offence. The Russian woman confessed to kicking the shop owner, who is eight months pregnant, out of frustration after being asked to remove her shoes before entering a coffee shop. by Mitch Connor Photo courtesy of Bangkok Post Source: The Thaiger 2024-03-27 RELATED TOPIC: Foreigners condemned for spray-painting Phuket footpath https://aseannow.com/topic/1323243-foreigners-condemned-for-spray-painting-phuket-footpath/ - Discover how Cigna Insurance can protect you with a range of visa-compliant plans that meet the minimum requirement of medical treatment.

Popular Post DonniePeverley Posted March 26 Popular Post Share Posted March 26 (edited) Kicking a pregnant lady and only getting a 500 Baht fine ?! There's a 'minority' of Russians who are just very annoying and have spoilt the great island of Phuket. It's been to clear to everyone they are working and buying up businesses for nearly a year now. It makes you question more the decision to give them 6 months visa. Edited March 26 by DonniePeverley 6 1 5 1 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post harleyclarkey Posted March 26 Popular Post Share Posted March 26 Hang on now, hardly a "rampage". But 2 thick idiots who have no respect for the country that hosts them. But then Thailand this , plus the Chinese, are what you wanted. Wow ....how draconian....😉, that Russian woman with her reds got a 500 Baht fine plus a "massive" 15 day suspended sentence. Now that will really teach her not to start any sh* t in Thailand 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Compare this to the Swiss guy treatment. With the absurd excuse of being on the rag admitted guilt. Sounds like a fair adjudication, like what the defendant/culprit was a Thai lady ? A Thai woman done same. So would she have received the 15 day suspended sentence also or just “500 baht and a wai” ? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eumenades Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 More Russian bashing. We have our own curmudgeonly visitors and murderous football hooligans.

Popular Post RobU Posted March 26 Popular Post Share Posted March 26 Interesting that the language of the article portrays them as naughty boys rather than disrespectful vandals who engaged in a pre meditated action designed to cause offence and anger and get them noticed. They initially bought the spray paint then chose a target then posted a video of their actions 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
