oh what happen today ? no bashing ? ahh of course he is Australian so I guess he is not eligible for bashing .....

This guy is a everything an Aussie Yob and a Bogan represents.... sadly there plenty

more where this fine specimen comes from....

Probably plenty where you come from too pal or maybe you could fit that criteria you so willingly place on Australians !!!!!

Anyway just another piece of *hit locked up no matter where he or it comes from.

Where did he get his gun from? Hiw can a farang buy a gun in Thailand?

How can anyone buy an illegal gun in any country? Money talks.

Where you live does not change your behavior.

Once a thuggish crook, always a thuggish crook.

Judging from his "hardened" look I'm guessing he has a rap sheet longer then a kite.

Despite this day and age of IT it seems criminal records are not shared between LE's and immigration.

I presume this is the gun in question. photo taken from his face book page https://www.facebook.com/mark.coutelas?fref=ts I also see that he has time in Thai custody already.

interesting Facebook page. I guess now that border runs for visas have been stopped people like this guy will become an endangered species in Thailand

And you Sir are from where.?

Is the BB gun legal?

FB:

Mark Coutelas What's not to like its a Glock 17!"

Lol. Muppet.

Paranoia, sleep deprivation and handguns isn't a great combo.

Wow this guy is heavy duty , half a gram of meth ( half the pros in bkk are on it) the bb and the hand gun could almost be purchased entirelly on sukumvit , the ice epidemic is global , half a gram doesn't make someone a dealer and I dare say the smug look in his face is one of being setup or his waiting to pay the police off , all you so called do-gooder experts on Thailand and it's people should get out more and stick your head out the window sometime , everyone has there preference in life and the way some of you are talking maybe he needed to protect himself from malevolent farangs !!

Thsi has to be an advertisement for Any- Drugs

"If you are Stupid - don't take stupid drugs"

...or something like that

It's now just about the gun not the drug that carries a stiffer penalty bcos he's an Aussie. If he were a Nigerian or an African some white-rabbits here will condemn the entire black race for the crime of one man leaving the substance behind...

A person who goes to equity must go with clean hands...

A Powder Cowboy . . . .. just send him back to Aus with a postit note on his forehead.

"Further training needed."

Australian tourist one of the first foreigners to be arrested during Thai military crackdown after police find gun and drugs in hotel room raid.

An Australian tourist arrested in Thailand is one of the first foreigners to face a harsh new military crackdown that could see offenders dealt with quickly in military courts.

Mark Robert Coutelas, 53, was arrested after police raided his Phuket resort apartment on Tuesday and allegedly found an illegal firearm, bullets and a small amount of methamphetamine.

Thai soldiers now have the power to deal with alleged offenders in a military or civilian court and they can hold people without charge for up to seven days under the tough military regime that seized power last Thursday.

With such a corrupt police department on Phuket, it will only encourage criminals, from all around the world, to reside here, and crime will increase, significantly, if it hasn't already.

He'll be out shortly, again, and what message does that send to other criminals, the BiB can be bought here.

Why send him back to Aussie? Is he above the laws of the land? He should face the music like his kinds...

<script type='text/javascript'>window.mod_pagespeed_start = Number(new Date());</script>

seems to be in good shape for being 53..

Not really....,

I'm not condoning anything, I think Chrystal Meth is a despicable drug, however why didn't the police drug test him and the GF (Thai?) and lay the charges where appropriate. The BB gun is legal, so that leaves the 9mm, if he was hanging around in those circles wit the amount of firearms on the street here I could sort of understand it. He wasn't caught outside his home with it. Meth and guns are probably not a good mix however, but we don't know he was using, maybe just keeping the GF "happy". It could quite easily have been hers and he has "manned up" and taken the wrap for her. As I said a drug test would have made that conclusive...

Guess I won't be seeing him at the gym anymore

Just another bag of $hit excuse for a human. 20+ in the slammer for him.

Must be a mistake though...how could he be Australian with a name like that? Must be European.

That's a joke. I wonder if the gf dropped him in? BiB get a conviction, gf gets the cash stash, and everybody's happy except the yob.

The pic in chooka's post is not of the ugly Australian with the gun.

Where do you think the white fellas in Australia came from?

Going way back, principally from Britain and Ireland!!

Who said the gun was his? How do you know it doesnt bvelong to the girlfriend?

Classic.

530mg. You mean half a gram. Less than a personal amount and not a dealers hoard. Really! yes wrong but so is the drama. This is not an indication the guy is dealing drugs AT ALL. He is probably a recreational dabbler. Millions of those so please dont give me the old self righteous chestnut.

The guy's last name suggests his ancestors might have been Greek or Spanish. Except for the aboriginals, Australia is fully populated by descendants of immigrants. It strikes me as bizarre that many posters who are probably living in Thailand and thus emigrated themselves, still seem to think that all British should have an English name, all French a French name, and so on. There are many born and bred British with Indian names, Dutch with Indonesian names, French with Arab or African names. In case you have half Thai kids, would you like it if the Thainess of their grandchildren, 100 years down the road, would be questioned because the family name is Smith, Schulz, van Galen or Ducroix?

If anybody develops software which automatically filters out posts where it is questioned if somebody is really British, French or whatever on the basis of his/her name, I am a buyer.

Did you not read that I said it was a joke??

Australia is probably a greater mixing pot of nationalities, names, colors and religions than anywhere else on the planet, the legacy of a far too generous immigration policy in the past.

If he's dealing, I hope the creep does long time in the Bangkok Hilton.

Another Walter Mitty bites the dust.

Why is it always the bald headed dudes with tattoos?

Signalers of criminals?

Yes, he does not looked impressed in the photo, give it a few days coming down off meth in custody, and he will be very impressed! The next impression he will get is the time he will spend in the gray bar hotel. Putting those photos online that was a great idea! Too bad one jerk like this spots up the windshield for the rest of us! Doc

Great link chooka, very funny.

It reinforces my resolve to cull them if I ever get into power though.

It took 10 of them to arrest him and they all seem very happy and pleased with the catch in the photo, even Mark is grinning like a Cheshire cat.

Aye lad, but in case you haven't noticed, exile is a handy tool, when dealing with undesirables.

We notice more than but a few criminals, avoiding Thailand justice, like this.

Having somewhere to send them back to, is a convenience not to be missed at every opportunity.

In the great and "real" days of the Magna Carter, this was a sound legal option.
