Safe to say he was planning to barter.

A person, especially a 64-year old male, must have some serious issues before even considering shoplifting women clothes at Big C.

What an idiot, he should never leave his home country.

Because as every aspiring ladyboy knows, Big C is the place to go to score the latest fashions. Most likely selecting his wardrobe for the next Miss Tiffany contest.

& they would have looked soooo good on my new Teruk..............

Neither Sam or Hedayat is a Turkish name / lastname.

If they found a passport with this name, it could be a syrian refugee or ethnic minority born / living in Turkey.

In both cases, it is wrong to call him Turk, because he is not an ethnic (majority) Turk.

A simple search:

Shows he is either arabic or farsi (I can't differentiate alphabet)

No any Turkish citizen can be too stupid to commit a minor crime and go to Monkey House (Jail) in Thailand.

Pathetic

True. Everybody knows Tesco has a better range

I can't help but feel sorry for this guy.

Who knows what the reason is behind him shoplifting women's clothing, it could be that he needs help or perhaps he wanted to get caught.

Whatever the truth behind the story it's sure be a sad one, but we probably won't hear anything beyond the attention grabbing headline.

I guess his plans for becoming a katoey will have to wait for a while

First he needs to look in a mirror

This is an exceptional piece of reporting. All you other media, take a good look and see how it's done! It's concise, sequential, uncomplicated and impartial - the story on Pattaya One even got a cliff hanger.

The only problem is the content: shoplifting...really?!

The Panty Snatcher strikes again!!...Nothing new.

If some-one is 64 years and very HANSUM much better to don't steal anything cause every guard (mostly women in purple polo in Big C) keep her eyes on him ....

Dumb.

His girlfriend may have been demanding.

There is no such Turkish name nor last name. He is not Turkish.

Turk or no Turk, he's definitely a jerk!

Not necessarily, he might become everyone’s Teerak in the Monkey House. Also, could have been an instant Katoey celeb (if the powers that be gave the thumbs up) if allowed to keep the garb from Big C for his/others entertainment.

Wonder is he was on overstay/wrong visa ... Now there's more nefarious

SERIOUS CRIMES that will not be tolerated !!!!!

Aye Mr. Hedayat this is what happens when you assume Thais are all dumb.........They fall out of bed laughing at clowns like you

I wonder if he needs a ticket home and being deported seemed a way of doing that. it's not unheard of.

Just goes to prove the old adage, "never trust a Turk in a tutu".

The Panty Snatcher strikes again!!...Nothing new.

Could have been a lot worse..remember the Panty Sniffer a year or so back caught in a 7/11 doing his best for Thailand?

I would like to hear his side to the story...he stole clothes for who? and why? In his mind he thought it was worth doing.....looks like he is not experienced at this.

What an embarrassing end to what he may of thought a justifiable good deed for someone.

Just another day in Pattaya! Lol i love this place!

old turks ...rod stewart...

What else do you call stealing from a store? I thought shop lifting nailed it right on the head.
