Odd behaviour - seems bit off if you committed a murder than needed assistance back to the crime scene?

[sunholidaysun1]

I think she commited suicide like all the Farangs in Pattaya Do !!

[Scott]

I hope there is some follow-up on this story. I don't know of too many people who kill someone and then go out for a evening of drinking.

At least he will have lots of Iranian compatriots in prison.

My condolences to the family and friends of the victim.

[rubl]

The odd behaviour may indicate that our Iranian friend was bewildered and really made a mistake and by accident. It would explain the non-sensical walking around.

Unless drugs are involved, then anything can happen.

Waiting for additional info.

I wonder if all these Iranian criminals in Thailand, make it in the news in Iran, or does the government like to keep things like this quiet. Seems like a lot are in the Thai news.

Uh oh. Shall we prepare the stones?

Is it my imagination, or does 80 % every crime story out of Pattaya have the words Iranian, ladyboy, or both ??  My condolences to the girl who was just trying to earn a living. I suspect in the future that her fellow workers will be reluctant to go with Iranian men.........

[katana]

Thairath doesn't add too much more detail. Says the Iranian man approached a Pattaya municipal officer and asked him to take him back to his room. When they got there he promptly fainted. There were scratches all over his body and signs of a struggle in the room.

[animatic]

It is plausible he was drugged as part of a robbery scheme,

she got killed for making the move too soon, or her partner,

while Irainian was in a drugged, semi-sensical state, and reacted

without realizing his strength so to speak, or in an unpredicted way.

Possible some sort of set up of him.

All in all it IS very, very odd behavior by him.

And doesn't seem to be the action of someone

voluntarily partying, but more involuntarily drugged.

[BEDBANDIT]

just to stop some off the speculation that going on ....

it turns out this poor girl is my friends cousin . she has been strangled , then he went out for a walk ( so he could blame somebody else , saying that somebody else has been in the room )

there were together for a holiday fling about a month ago , then he went home , hes been back 3-4 days and killed her .

her parents have visited him in Bangkok jail ... where he has cried , begged or forgiveness and claimed he loved her .

shes not the type to take drugs , maybe they were just drunk and an argument went very wrong ..

It's your imagination.

Next ...

^forgot drugged/robbed - the usual 3 iranians in a room looking dazed when they wake up only to have their picture taken by the intrepid reporters of pattaya.

[toenail]

??? We all know that SOME holidayers in Pattaya seem to go overboard in "Sin City"; however, I wonder what the percentage of Iranian vacationers get into trouble here? -- An Iranian couple a few months ago was caught shop lifting; many Iranians getting robbed by Ladyboys along Beach Rd...; bringing drugs into the country... the list goes on.

[maxman71]

The Iranians have a wonderful life example to follow in the top leadership of their homeland. I suspect if many of us had MoMoNejad as their leader, we might be driven to similar behavior. No excuse for it though.

Comments like these really do not do justice to similar behavior by foreigners from just about any other country, who visit Thailand. Not many of us know much about Iran, or Iranians, other than the types we read about here in the scat media. Most of us do not interact with those tourists from Iran who are fairly decent people, and live their lives the way they do, out of our sensory range. The leadership may or may not have anything to do with the individual behavior, but using a broad brush to take a jab at one country's leader does not make much sense when considering what other countries have to offer.

When their identities and nationality are removed from the equation, I see nothing here that is newsworthy, in comparison to other behavior among the individuals who frequent the venues and watering holes in and around Pattaya.

A more objective journalist would have entitled the story "Foreigner Suspected of Murdering his Thai Girlfriend". There seems to be a big push, by the international media, to demonize Iran; its people, its leadership, its religion, and its culture. This is no surprise considering the source.

I feel sorry for this poor girl probably from an Issan village seeking a man or money along with the companionship and excitement of Pattaya and die at 21 years old total waist of life, if there is a next life let's hope hers is a better one. She may not have been from a bar we don't know that 100% we just assume she was, but that is the risk all the girls here take every night when they go with a stranger.

This is another day in life in Pattaya, man meets girl fall in Lust or love goes away, come back and all maybe not the same.

We all know why most tourist come to Pattaya, sex leads to crime in most places in the world more so than Thailand because here it's readily available. But some men find it's hard to wash away their own moral structures relating to sex partners, and try and force their morals upon Thai girls who have little or no understanding of that's sort of mind set.

I am 100% in favour of naming the nationality, colour or creed of people charged with any crime. This is the only way to get the real statistics of who is committing the crimes. Sometimes the truth hurts but it is still the truth.

The Police obviously know the statistics as they do in even in the Politically Correct world. They used to published these statistics in England many years ago but the madness of P.C took hold. Eg; white man / black man , Indian, was arrested for ?????? we all have a good idea who does what and how but we live in the dark.

If there is 100% proof that certain areas in the world generate more crime than others then the Thai immigration should make it harder for them to come here! They can because P.C doesn't not raise its head here like most of the western world . They can stop anyone coming in who they don't want without outside pressure and long may it continue. I like the openness in Thailand to be able to do and say things which I can't in my own Freedom of Speech country. From a white Honkey, pommie, call me what you like, it won't hurt me.

While there is an ocean of information and disinformation to justify this post, I guess the reason for me piping up is to lend a bit of balance to the scat that Pattaya Mail Snooze continually excretes.

I agree somewhat on the noble merits of your post, however I can not accept the existence of what you describe, in its purest form, as being the condition here in the L.O.$. What happened was in its purest bestial form of humanity, and I have developed a belief that human bestial behavior respects no nationality, religion, or race. Getting the "real" statistics will never be an absolute certainty as long as human beings demonstrate their dark nature, and have a price that they are willing to sell their souls for. That is the only certainty I know of, in addition to the fact that there are other beasts out there with the money to purchase these souls, and whither yet one more vein of truth in the world.

These days, about the only one you can trust is yourself, and hope for the best when you walk out on that limb.

Yes what you say is true, but to live a life without trust is no option.

Perhaps he fainted as a ruse, to try to keep cops from going on up to the room - thinking the cop(s) would be focused on reviving him, and then pat him on the shoulder and tell him to go up to his room (alone) and sleep it off. Regardless, so sad that a girl died.

Maybe one got thru customs with his load of ice.

Tehran Times doesn't show anything yet, but give it time and lets see if they post it up on their online tabloid. Some interesting reading on their perspective/views of world events.

It seems to me that some of you guy's should be working for the thai police. How can you assume the circumstances to what happend when it hasn't even been reported.

Oh, I know you were there, you saw the whole thing go down!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Naaaaa - bomb iran i say!! Any freak who says the holocaust didnt happen and stones their own people deserve a ll they get. How do you know theyre "fairly decent people" when you say "dont interact with them" thats a direct contradiction. As for the media demonizing Iran - they do a good enough job on their own - stop bieng a loony leftie do gooder!!

....sex leads to crime in most places in the world....

Now that's one of the most ridiculous statements I've ever read in this forum.

If it were true then I, like many foreigners in Thailand, must be a hardened criminal by now.

Congrats to the poster on their achievement in such a short time. It's a very competitive field and for a beginner on TV it looks like you've got a great future here. I'm certainly looking forward to further posts.
