beano2274 Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 Nationality - British / Welsh maybe. Wynn - Welsh Ludwig - German sounding. I think his name might be Michael Wynn Ludwig. Now he is in a no Wynn situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uptheos Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 (edited) The Google translation says "I was born on 5 Oct 54 at about 14:15 pm" That's only 5 days before the robbery. Why does that guy have his hand on the shoulder.....anyone would think it's a staged photograph. Edited October 10, 2011 by uptheos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should translate as "the event (robbery) occurred at about 1415 on Oct 5" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blinky Bill Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 The Thai Farmers Bank (now Kasikorn Bank) on the nothern end of Moon Muang Road was robbed by a farang about 8 or more years ago. I can't remember his nationality, but no doubt ran out of funds and couldn't face the reality of life back where ever it was where he came from. He was caught fleeing the scene on foot. Might still be in Chiang Mai prison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
