To do something that silly he must have smoked most of the evidence already.

Note to future Iranian thieves...if you're planning to steal something, leave the illegal drugs back at the hotel room. Then when you get caught, you're not facing a compounded felony!

At least he won't be returning home sans a hand.

Perhaps he's a spy and thought he was stealing a drone.

Hmm. From his pic he's got a touch of Phil Spectre about him.

" ....... concealed in his trouser pocket"

Or, in non-journalist English, just " ....... in his trouser pocket". Most people not having transparent pockets.

That said, tourists here do seem to be getting more and more stupid.

Must have been good stuff.

Maybe the sanctions are starting to work ...

Won't be long before he, or someone on here, says that the police planted it in his pocket.

If so, what made him to get the great idea to shoplifting a model plane?

shows how much Pattaya can change people...he looked fairly respectable from the passport to looking like Kramer from Seinfield show down the cop shop

The idiot should have tried to steal a Pilatus PC7, much smaller than an Airbus A380.

Very odd as the passport was issued only two months ago but look at him now compared to passport photo.

I would like to see a photo of him trying to conceal that up his shirt.......couldn't he have found a bigger one?

Thinking exactly the same thing. In fact is the same person ?

The reason he was smoking dope is ,that as a muslim he is not allowed alcohol.

Is that an airbus in your pocket or are you just please to see the Pattaya girls..
