Rimmer Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 2 Turks drugged and robbed from their North Pattaya Hotel rooms PATTAYA:--Two Turkish friends on holiday in Pattaya were drugged and robbed on Monday.Police were called to the Riviera Resort in Soi 16/1 off the Naklua Road on Monday afternoon after hotel cleaners found the two room occupants unconscious on their beds. There was clear evidence of a disturbance in both rooms and it was determined that both room safes had been stolen.The victims, Mr. Almet aged 51 and Mr. Nihat of the same age were staying in adjoining rooms connected by a door which was unlocked. Eventually they regained consciousness and told Police that they had met two Thai women at the Dolphin Roundabout in North Pattaya and decided to take them back to their rooms.

TheShockMaster Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Why on earth would anyone have 40,000 US$ in a hotel safe attached to a wardrobe? Absolute mugs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoslim Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 only 40,000 $ ? The riff-raff is really all what is left in pattaya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicog Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Equipment used to remove the room safes from the wardrobes were left behind and crucially the resort did not keep copies of the Thai ID cards of the two women which leaves Police with the difficult task of recovering the stolen items which reportedly includes 40,000 US Dollars Crucially? or deliberately? And $40K? Probably for the insurance company to verify. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do not trust the banks then? Tourists, no Thai bank account? I know the ATM withdrawal fees are ฿150 a pop, but considering they apparently lost so much, would've been easier to utilise their Turkish debit / credit cards. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoli Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Why on earth would anyone have 40,000 US$ in a hotel safe attached to a wardrobe? Absolute mugs. Unless they came to buy a condo, all cash, I find this hard to believe. Why would the hotel allow these girls to go to the room after refusing to leave their ID cards? Didn't that raise a red flag? Now the Turks need to find money to buy two new safes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never heard of an insurance company covering ANY cash lost. If you know of one, let me know. I think I might lose $1,000,000 next month!

Now the Turks need to find money to buy two new safes! I could be mistaken, but it was the case for me for foreign ownership (or perhaps it's not applicable if buying a condo in a company name or whatever), but I thought funds for buying a condo had to be wired into Thailand from abroad??? Regardless of the above, I'm convinced this is an attempt (a poor one by the looks of it) at defrauding an insurance company!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No thats not right, you can change your foreign currency here in Thailand at a Bank or Authorised Money Changer, they will then issue the Foreign Currency Transaction Report required by the Land Office to register the Condo it the buyers name.

bigwilly Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Perhaps these Turkish gents were going to open an Turkish Ice cream outlet on Walking St, they would blend in nicely.Thus the 40K.BW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
