Man Accused Of Stealing Male Athlete's Underpants

BY Khaosod English:

BANGKOK: -- A group of Paralympics male athletes have captured a man who is accused of repeatedly stealing their underpants.

According to Mr. Akkrachai Pimthong, 40, a Thai Paralympian Archery, many underpants of his and his friends′ had been stolen for a period of time from their athlete residence near Rajamangala Stadium in Bangkok′s Hua Mak area.

The theft has become more frequent after he and his friends returned from ASEAN Paragames, which was held in Myanmar’s Capital Nay Pyi Taw previously in January, Mr. Akkrachai said.

The group then decided to set up watches around their dormitory, and started to observe outside visitors.

In the evening of 28 January, the group reportedly noticed a man stealing their underpants, but they failed to capture him. The athletes later set up a trap by hanging an underwear as a bait, and waited for the thief to come back while several people kept watch on the trap.

Eventually, at around 23.00 last night the suspect returned to the scene and started stealing the underpants from the hangers again. This time, however, Mr. Akkrachai and his friend gave chase by riding handicapped-friendly motorcycles, and contacted the security team to help capture the man.

Once the group stopped the suspect and searched his car, they were surprised to find over 100 underpants stored in there, Mr. Akkrachai said. The suspect was later brought to the police.

The suspect, identified as Mr. Pachara Saengrojasuk, 50, confessed of his crime, telling police that he has stolen the items simply because he wants to wear them. The man has been charged with theft, and will be prosecuted soon.

Police have urged all victims of Mr. Pachara′s alleged theft to file complaint to the police before the prosecution starts.

OMG eeww!

Sick sick sick!

He has their support.

OMG eeww!

Sick sick sick!

I'll bet he has a past record for sniffing boys bicycle seats.

G-string him up.

Yeh, sick.

What is the item on the left hand side of the car boot?

Can't be underpants

Here's another important case for the BIB. They will probably pull their detectives off the Tata GM's "fall" off his hotel balcony for this one.

G-string him up.

Only a brief visit.

Yeh, sick.

Looks like a limb-stump protector--too big for a willy warmer.

Only a brief visit.

We will never know Y-fronts he did it.

Was he Thai or a JOCK.

Yeh, sick.

It looks like a socket pocket. You put your limb remnant in it before putting on your prosthetic. It allows for a tighter fit and reduces chafing. Nothing unusual about it.

Pity the poor bugger who pinches mine...more than anyone deserves

Isn't there another story where the guy selling his sweaty ones for 300B each? I think he said there were others selling too. Must be a big market.

gave chase by riding handicapped-friendly motorcycles

Tuk Tuks?

The image of 2 Thais giving chase to an old Thai fetish devotee " by riding handicapped-friendly motorcycles" is something out of a comedy movie. Have you ever noticed that every time there is an underwear thief story, these guys always amass large numbers of the garments? Is it because they know Thai underpants disintegrate after a few uses?

Lets hope the stolen item had skid marks.

Perhaps Khaosod have misplaced their calling. It's not so much in journalism but in writing Thai sit-coms - with all the attendant subtlety thereof.

They were hidden underwhere?

Noooooh, your'e thinking of the Japanese vending machines dispensing 'second hand' panties

Any relation to the BKK Governor that defends using "Spy Cams" in mobile toilets ?

The timing of this and the article about spy cam toilts is uncanny and Hillarious ! ha ha ha ha ha

That too, haha. But this was a recent story.

This is not the original place I saw it (probably saw it on this site!), but same story, from two days ago:

yuck

edit: time to delete my cookies now!

All they had to do was look for the suspect on that TV Cartoon, or the BMA Mobile Toilet Department

BRIEF ENCOUNTER at the jockey club enclosure

Lets hope the stolen item had skid marks.

This is the main reason they were stolen.----

Was the thief called Nicholas.

This is big Thai news. Worthy of top story coverage.

Don't worry it happens everywhere , worked on a minesite once in OZ and the boys were loosing their socks and jocks out of their dirty change room lockers.

I am curious to know....was he a PRDC Supporter or a UDD Supporter, A Democrat Supporter or a Pheu Thai Supporter or he simply adored Suthep and Abhisit? Was he a close friend of Dr Seri, a core PRDC Protester? Extremely curious.
