PHUKET: -- A Phuket security guard who turned to crime may have regretted his decision after the bag he stole turned out to contain nothing more than cosmetics, and CCTV images led police to his rented room the same day.

Rungnapa Bunnamee left her cosmetics bag in the basket of her motorbike when she stopped to shop at a 7-Eleven on Phuket City's Songkla Road on Tuesday.

Surapol Panpuk, a 40-year-old security guard, stole it.

Ms Rungnapa reported the bag missing and police arrived soon afterwards to inspect CCTV imagery. Local residents were able to recognize Mr Surapol in the pictures and directed police to his rented room.

When confronted by officers, Mr Surapol confessed.

“After I stole the bag, I checked inside. There was nothing but cosmetics, so I just dumped it in someone else’s motorbike basket,” Mr Surapol said.

Is this a result of the Thai education system? 40-years-old and stupid as a mule...

I think that is why he is a security guard.

So if he had the benefit of western education he would know ahead of time which bag to snatch and which had nothing of value in it? Interesting take on the purpose of education. Quite a devastating put down there.

Had he mugged/beaten a foreigner, then he'd be a hero in jail.

I seriously doubt a single Thai would condemn a Thai for mugging/beating a foreigner. Xenophobic brainwashing starts young here...

She called the cops and they checked around the cctv ....for some cheap cosmetics. Phuket cops must have nothing better to do.

What would you like them to do.Quick result,good in my book.

You should look closer to home for xenophobia,maybe in Udon.

Only took 8posts to start Thai bashing.

Has to be a record, the Thai-bashing usually starts at around post 3.

If only he knew how expensive cosmetics are he wouldn't of ditched the bag
