Boater Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 (edited) Russian citizen Yuriy Semyonov has been deported from Thailand accompanied by officers from the Russian Interpol Bureau according to the consular department of Russian Embassy in Thailand. He was taken back to Russian on Wednesday accused of drug-related crimes. Semyonov was detained by local law enforcement agencies in Samui last March at Russian request in co-operation with the Russian Embassy. http://www.samuitimes.com/russian-organized-crime-figure-arrested-samui-deported-back-russia/ Edited April 12, 2014 by Rooo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigC Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 He looks too small to be an organised crime man He would never have passed the vetting process or pass the physical to get into the mafia Unless he had contacts on the inside that helped him pass the mafia test Oh well my he has been sent back to Russia for more mafia training in a Russian jail Sent from my iPhone using ThaiVisa app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Exactly, he never passed "the mafia test". That's why he got caught and deported. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pomthai Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 It that diet of fish head soup that thinned him out. They'll fatten him up again on potatoes and turnips in Ruskie prison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All part of the training Maybe some mafia punishment John Gotti had to do time for somone else as part of a punishment If you don't know who john Gotti is then I can give you an Italian American history of the mafia but I might dribble on for some time Sent from my iPhone using ThaiVisa app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Yes, I know the name Gotti, but I couldn't be bothered to know more about him in my head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samuijimmy Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 One has to wonder how many other nationals were also deported...? .... Seems like very selective, unimportant news.... an attempt it seems to me for a bit more Russian bashing going on here.... If it weren't for Russians, Samui and other places around Thailand, it would be pretty quiet.... and so would many businesses they support.... Why not lead off with this? http://www.samuitimes.com/samui-times-starts-search-samuis-cleanest-toilet/ or that Samui Rotary Club, had to cancel the golf tournament... due to lack of response and interest 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

notmyself Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 an attempt it seems to me for a bit more Russian bashing going on here.... It's just a bit of news Jim. There are a good few Russians heading back home these days since the Ruble has dropped 20% in the last month or so. Was in town (Lamai) today with a couple of friends from Iran and they were really getting into the swing of things! Couple of dozen Russian couple pushing prams and virtually all were going nuts because people were throwing water about. I really don't care where someone is from, the colour of their skin or sexual orientation.. I only care if someone has a good heart. I've known for a long time that your average Thai small business owner does not like Russians because they never spread money around but rather sit at home after buying drink and food from Tesco or 7-11. I'm not say that that is justified but that is certainly what they think. Today I saw another side and it was not nice mate. Maybe because it was the 12th rather than the 13th?

Yes, I know it's just a bit of news, but the OP of that, continually provides us with negative links, it seems every month... never any positive stuff... that was really my point... It must be a pretty boring life to go through usually Brit news papers, or in this case, the Samui Times, and dig out the "dirt" ... and post it here.... .... I really don't see the point, same stuff happens in every country if anyone watches world news! I think that the buying at Tesco etc, is something we all do, who live here... Some of the local small shops and markets (Not all, for sure) bring it on them selves with their double pricing.... So it's not just the Russians who tend to avoid these stores, I am sure many of us do... and even Thai's I have heard sometimes get the same treatment .... if they look rich! As for the water throwing, I've not seen any yet, even in Lamai yesterday morning, but then, I did not hit the bar areas, where it is more likely to happen! Going to go find my water gun now.... or maybe just my camera! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
