Dpolenz Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I wouldnt mind if it was food he was trying to rob. but a shirt.Then again judging by the one he has already on then maybe a new shirt was needed.Seriously though i feel for the guy,what he did was wrong but hey.Most likely doesnt have enough cash to post bail or pay a fine which the judge will order.So most likely he will do some jail time.Goodluck Ruskie.

LaoPo Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 ......"He was locked up on a charge of theft and will appear in Court later this week." If they would do that to all shoplifters in the world (10,000's per day) there would be no place enough to "store" those thiefs. LaoPo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaoPo If they did that to all shoplifters in the World then maybe shopping would be less expensive for us all, as store overheads would be reduced.

beginner Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Here is another version of the same incident. Take your pick. Up to you! Courtesy of Pattaya Daily News Updated: [November 11, 2009 ] :: 15:00:34 [view 740] RUSSIAN ARRESTED STEALING CLOTHES FROM PATTAYA SHOPPING CENTER During a shopping trip with his family at the Mike Shopping Mall in Pattaya, a Russian national has been arrested for allegedly stealing a pair of pyjamas. Pattaya, the 10th of November 2009 [PDN]: At approximately 11:00pm on Tuesday the 10th police Lieutenant General Chatchai Srisuwan an investigator with the Pattaya police, received a call from a shop assistant at Samwell (clothing store) in the Mike Shopping Complex Beach Road, South Pattaya. The assistant explained to police that a foreign man had just stolen an article of clothing from the store and was attempting to leave the premises When police arrived at the scene they were met by a Mr Sarod Aimarom age 23, the shop assistant that had initially contacted police and a center security officer. The center security had detained a Mr Vladimirouih Kolesov age 51, for the theft of a pair of pyjamas with a retail value of 780 baht. The pyjamas were found to be in his possession hidden amongst other items in a bag that Mr Kolesov was carrying. Mr Kolesov explained to police that after earlier shopping in Samwell’s with his family he had purchased a shirt from them and had thought that the Chinese style pair of pyjamas was a complimentary gift for the earlier purchase. However Mr Aimarom insists that although Mr Kolesov and his family did visit the store and buy a shirt, as well as ask the price of several other items, at no point did the family or Mr Kolerov get offered a complimentary item of any description. Mr Aimaron explained that after the family had left the premises he walked around the shop and discovered an item was missing. Suspecting the recently departed Russian family he alerted security at the mall. The center security managed to apprehend the family whilst trying to flee the complex. Upon looking in the bag that Mr Kolerov had on him they discovered the missing article of clothing. Security from the shopping complex escorted Mr Kolerov back to the Samwell shop where Mr Aimarom asked him politely to pay for the item. Mr Kolerov refused to pay for the item, still insisting that the article was complimentary. No agreement was reached between the two parties and so, police were called. Police escorted Mr Kolerov back to the local police station where he was charged with theft. Mr Kolerov still persisted to plead his innocence; however Mr Aimarom had plenty of witnesses and evidence to give police reason to charge him for the Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dpolenz Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 So the case will be handed over to the public prosecutor then onto the judge,the best thing the Russian could do for himself now is to pay for the bloody shirt.Dont matter if he is telling the truth if the shop owner has many witnesses real or fake he is in trouble.His passport will be taken away and it could take a long time untill it goes to court.Presuming he will be allowed to post bail then he will be stuck in pattaya for a while.Now is not the time to be hard headed.

imaneggspurt Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 Heres his mistake,.."Mr Aimarom asked him politely to pay for the item.

Exactly,and he is going to wish he had soon enough if this goes any further but as long as he has some money he should be ok because i suspect the judge will only fine him,but if he cant pay for the fine then a litle jail time will come into play.Hopefully this case has already been resolved.

LaoPo Agreed, but if they stored all those shoplifters in prisons of the same quality and conditions as the prisons here in LOS im sure there would be a sharp decline in thieves..and inmates in general for that matter. Prisons in Australia are like hotels..TV, net access, library, edible food, ect...the bludgers live in luxury. Its well known in places such as Tasmania that the regular homeless crowd deliberately run amock and cause havoc so they can be detained and housed in relative comfort before the oncoming winter months. they call it their winter getaway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
