Former Washington Post Editor Claims Bezos Made Deal with Trump to Block Harris Endorsement

Bang Sue Police Station officers apprehended a foreign national for allegedly using counterfeit banknotes to buy sunglasses at the popular Chatuchak Market in Bangkok. The suspect, identified as Mr. Su Zhenfeng, a Chinese citizen, was found in possession of 95 counterfeit 1,000-baht bills.

 

The arrest took place on October 27, after the police were alerted by the market’s radio communication centre around 15:45. Officers, led by Police Colonel Phuwadol Unphothi, Chief of Bang Sue Police Station, arrived at the scene following a report from a local shop owner. Patcharanat Somboonserm, the owner of a sunglasses stall, claimed that Mr. Su had attempted to buy a pair of sunglasses priced at 200 baht, handing over a 1,000-baht note for payment. Upon closer inspection, Mr. Patcharanat realised the banknote was counterfeit and promptly notified the authorities.

 

Upon arrival, officers conducted a search of Mr. Su and uncovered 95 counterfeit 1,000-baht notes. All the notes carried the same serial number, 7J 4556865, and bore the word “COPY” on the watermark area on the reverse side. The police seized the counterfeit currency as evidence and escorted Mr. Su to Bang Sue Police Station.

 

Since Mr. Su does not understand Thai, a translator was called in. During questioning, Mr. Su denied knowing the banknotes were fake, insisting that he used the notes unaware of their counterfeit nature. Despite his denial, authorities have informed him of his rights and the charges against him, which he continues to contest.

 

The case is now under further investigation by the Bang Sue Police Station to determine the source of the counterfeit currency and assess whether Mr. Su is part of a larger operation.

Guess his English reading skills are lacking, 95 were found on him, I'd guess he started with 100.

What has nationality to do with this illegality? It just stirs more hatred as the local news went over the moon on the subject. A cabbie asked me, why there are so many law-breaking farang? When I asked him, why he came to that conclusion, he referred to this case which he heard this morning on the radio. 

No wonder the non-Thai crowd is mostly appreciated for its ATM-function these days ......... as all caucasians are "very rich" and hence it is even more confusing, that so many of them are breaking the law. 

Book the culprit and get on with life but keep it balanced otherwise the non-Thai crowd will call Thais, quite rightly so, racist nationalists!

That is all very politically correct.

Thankfully there is no law in Thailand which prohibits your right to be racist if you choose. 
You can be a misogynist to if you want. 
 

Thais are not into all the woke nonsense. The Chinaman was ripping off Thai people. Name and shame him.

Jail him, then deport him, then blacklist him.

If they literally have the word "copy" printed on them, they're not "counterfeit" at all - they're novelty or replica notes.

We don't know he was selling counterfeit goods and even if he was he paid "tax" on them.

The raids take place on the 32nd of never 

If raids take place they find 100 bottles of georgie armenia priced at 100 baht and headline is police bust counterfeit gang and seize 3 million baht of goods

Idiot... If had 2-3 notes he MIGHT have gotten away playing dumb.
