Pattaya Police Probe Indian Tourist’s Claim of Gold Necklace Theft by Ladyboys

Pattaya police are investigating a 27-year-old Indian tourist’s report that two transgender women stole his 150,000-baht gold necklace during a late-night encounter on Beach Road. Hemanth Kumer alleges the suspects harassed him and hugged him before he realised his 40-gram necklace was missing. Police have launched a CCTV review and witness search but note inconsistencies in his statement, warning that filing a false report carries legal consequences. The case highlights ongoing concerns about late-night scams targeting tourists in Pattaya, where similar pickpocketing incidents by suspects posing as sex workers have been reported. The investigation remains ongoing.
