In a swift operation on September 22, Thung Maha Mek Police Station officers arrested Mr. Saber D., a 41-year-old Iranian national, on charges of nighttime theft.

 

The arrest was executed at a luxury hotel in Bangkok's Sathon area, following an arrest warrant issued by the Bangkok South Criminal Court (No. 595/2567) on September 21.

The incident dates back to September 15, when a Russian woman was robbed in front of a hotel on Bangkok's Silom Road. The suspect, described initially as an Arab man, approached the woman and asked to see the money in her purse. When she obliged, he took the money and fled the scene.

 

Acting on this report, the investigation team from Thung Maha Mek Police Station swiftly identified Mr. Saber D. as the suspect. After gathering sufficient evidence, they secured an arrest warrant and located him at a hotel in the Sathon area. The arrest was made without incident.

The successful apprehension underscores the commitment of the Thai police to ensuring public safety and swiftly bringing offenders to justice.

Haha... What a joke.. Safely and swiftly only when it is either in social media or public news outlets and with a foreigner involved.

Aside from the Kuwaiti disrupting the local scene with their incessant motorcycles, Iranians are a close second from the Middle East in terms of unscrupulous characters.
