epicstuff Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 I assume the Russian "hit squad" was resident in Thailand and weren't flown in especially for this one job. Now that's scary stuff - if the Russian mafia have this sort of manpower already on the ground, what the hell is it going to be like in a few years? I don't think the Thai authorities have really thought through the implications of such a large population of resident Russians/East Europeans whilst turning a blind eye to the obvious money laundering and wealth that the Russian criminal element bring to Thailand. The BIB and the Thai mafia are like kindergarten kids compared to the Russian mafia. If they have enough people on the ground and get organised enough, it will be the BIB and the Thai mafia that will be paying tea money to THEM for the right to operate. Ive been looking in yellow pages under Russian hit squad' but cant find a number.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fakename Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 I wouldnt give the Bib such a high score, since they chased a car in heavy traffic, and the three guys in it, got away. Dont the BIB like to run? Or were they afraid of the stun gun and hammer? In just about every arrest that makes the news, half of the suspects always get away! Thats not a very good record.

Pib Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 Will the bad guys be deported or buy their way out? I guess we all know the answer. Probably deported along a heavy fine (probably around 5000 baht) and their passports stamped with a "Not Allowed Back Into Thailand for At Least 90 Days." However, this return restriction is waived if buying a Thailand Elite Card...a discount in the amount of the deportation fine will also be applied towards purchase of the Elite Card. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive been looking in yellow pages under Russian hit squad' but cant find a number.... LOOK UNDER F IN fantasy section of the yellow pages, or under ''party hire '' lol Not sure how long you've been living in Thailand or where you draw your knowledge regarding the organised criminal elements of Russian society on a world wide basis. By the way, I use (possibly incorrectly) the word "Russian" generally referring to the former states of the USSR. Russian criminal elements in an organised form have arisen in strength only since the demise of the former Soviet USSR. Their influence throughout the international criminal world is increasing. Thailand over the last decade has been a new source of wealth and power for them, largely because of the ability to launder money in a variety of ways. When they really get a foothold here in what is essentially the economic and political Wild West of the world, the Thai authorities and the BIB will be in a very compromised position. Yes there are other criminal elements in Thailand, but not in my opinion anywhere near as organised as the Russians. And I'm not talking about the odd ATM scam or the few reported crimes of violence. I'm talking about billions of USD involved in the construction and entertainment industries. Once these capital injections begin returning seriously positive revenues, the control of the authorities through violence and corruption is inevitable. You and I may not see much of it at street level but it will still be a force to be reckoned with in political, monetary, and social terms in Thailand.

jpduggan Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 credit to Pattaya One for finding out all details immediately: Mr. Alexander was incensed and decided to employ the services of a Russian-led Hit Squad who were paid to abduct and then kill Mr. Janik in a remote area outside of Pattaya. This is a hit Russian hit squad?: "The men wore balaclavas and were armed with stun guns and a hammer.". I suppose they were going to use the hammer to nail him to a table and tickle him to death. You watch too much cartoons on the telly, in the real world it only takes one blow with a hammer to the correct part of the head and you are dead.

oops Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 Credit to Pattaya Police. Seems like they are to be commended once in awhile instead of all the negative posts on ThaiVisa. | seriously believe that if the corruption every gets cleaned up....the Thai police force will be one of the toughest in Asia. \ They have the abilities to make things happen.. unfortunately they choose not to do it, except in some cases like this.... My hat is off to them, I just hope they don't let them go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

webfact Posted June 25, 2013 Author Share Posted June 25, 2013 Foreign mafias caught abducting an Estonian man in PattayaCHONBURI, 25 June 2013 (NNT) – Pattaya police managed to rescue an Estonian man from from apparent death after he was abducted by a gang of foreigners and a Thai man who were hired to kidnap and murder him.A section of Pattaya Nua road was closed off by the police on Monday, in their hunt for a Honda Accord sedan and a Honda City sedan that had been used in the abduction of a foreign man.Upon stopping the Accord, the police spent half an hour persuading those inside to lower the windows and step out of the car. Janek Keysol, an Estonian man, was found detained in the back seat and wounded. The three abductors, a Peruvian by the name of Alexander, a Russian man and a Thai, had in their possession ski hoods, a taser (an electroshot weapon), an amount of cash, anesthetics, a mobile phone jammer and a quantity of cocaine.The suspects said they were hired by Alexander, who was among those arrested, to abduct and kill Mr. Janek, after the latter had crossed the Peruvian in a condominium room deal and was preparing to run away with the money. They also indicated the Estonian man had made death threats against the Peruvian, who had already paid 4 million baht for the room, after the deal went sour.3 additional Russian men were involved in the abduction, and are still at large although police have already located their vehicles.The police set up the pursuit of the abductors after they had learned of the incident from the wife of the kidnapped man.-- NNT 2013-06-25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DGIE Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 Hmmmn. Mr. Alexander knew where to get hired killer people?How? So it is planned to buy a condo then kill the agent . Maybe, balance of payment is paid to the hired killers instead of paying the condo in whole. When Kisaloo was abducted, the title deeds might have handed to the killers already. Who knows, let's say the balance is 2 million payable when the title is transfered but the hired killers are paid maybe 1 million. So, Mr. Alexander still has million profit.

phantomfiddler Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 I think that anyone paying 4M for a condo and then being cheated, by having the unit transferred to another party, is entitled to be pissed off !
