"Pattaya had always come across as being nice and safe holiday destination. This was the first time that they had experienced any negative issues on their holiday."

What sense does it make to comment on any news story when you dont have first hand facts?

No one of us were there and have no idea what happened.

So why bother speculating?

Well I have to equally say - what is the point of a media organisation reporting the story when it is obvious they don't know the facts either.

Well from the Pattaya One report it seems most likely the whole thing was a staged robbery but who knows?

Close on 1500 Euros is rather a lot to be carrying on a night out but then this is Pattaya where everything is getting more expensive. :)

The two other suspects, Mr. Ramin Rast Gar aged 27 and Mr. Mortesa aged 25 are expected to be caught soon as the Police know where they are currently staying.

Correction : Were staying.

Well at least we have a follow up piece, a pretty unique event for the Pattaya press.
