Popular Post dinom Posted June 25, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted June 25, 2014 I don't buy that story. The taxi driver sits in the car, opens the trunk and let someone lift at least 50 KG in his trunk without standing next to him? And then he "forgets" to remind the teenage boy of his luggage? 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UbonRatch Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 (edited) I wonder if the little fella has an older brother, and mam and dad were rich? Or, EDIT: Tomorrow's news; Second taxi driver, best mates with another taxi driver, finds another body to boot!

brit1984 Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 seems strange how the teenager managed to get a man's dead body to the roadside, hail down a cab (presumably with the dead body by his side), got the driver to open the boot, lifted the dead body, and squeezed it into the boot, all by the side of a public road, without raising any suspicions... ...maybe he offered the driver a meter +50 baht deal 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm with you on this one. No-one dumps 50-60kg into the boot of a taxi (in consideration of our American consumers) without the taxi driver taking note. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just1Voice Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 In the original Bk Post article it said the man was 20-25, which is NOT a teenager, who hailed a cab in Samut Sakhon, had the driver wait while he put the "package" in the trunk, then had the driver drop him off at the Samae dam area in Bang Khun Thien area of Bangkok. Typical Thai reporting, no two stories are the same. No one seems to bother to actually check little things like FACTS. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rykbanlor Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 The Thais refer to 20 sometings still as teenagers. Their word for it anyway. They shouldn't use the word teenager in English, as we use it to describe the ages with the teen suffix only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
