Authorities in Pattani Province are on the hunt for two armed robbers who stole 1.2 million baht from convenience store staff en route to deposit the money at a local bank.

 

At approximately 14:30 on November 18, officers at Mayo Police Station received a report of the robbery. The incident occurred outside the Kasikorn Bank branch in Palas Subdistrict, where Ms. Marina Maming, 27, an employee of a convenience store, along with a colleague, had been transporting the cash by motorcycle.

 

Upon arriving at the bank, two unidentified men approached them on an old red Honda Wave motorcycle without a visible license plate. The suspects, one armed with a handgun, reportedly spoke in Malay, demanding the money. They then opened the seat compartment of the victims’ motorcycle, seized the cash, and fled in the direction of Mayo District.

 

The driver was described as wearing a collared shirt, while the passenger wore a blue hoodie and long jeans.

 

The police have launched an intensive search for the suspects and their vehicle. Efforts are underway to track down the culprits and recover the stolen money.
