Thieves drill through a Bangkok hotel walls, ransack six offices

[SABloke]

Well he's either poking his tongue out or sucking a lolly. This dude's got style!

Thailand's version of Ocean's Eleven ?

The Somtam boys ?

Somchai's Seven

Right here in Thailand applying Thai logic

So with all the clatter and noise the whole matter was ignored by the hotel staff and its seems lone security staff member?

The building's security guard said he found nothing suspicious during his midnight patrol of the sixth floor and did not know of the incident until office workers alerted him in the morning.

Might be a time to check this characters banking transactions of late and monitor his movements for a few weeks too.

Agreed... especially with your selection of the word "ignored". Spot on!

I wonder what would happen were someone to check in and begin banging away at the walls at, say, midnight? No way this was not heard. This is almost comical.

security guard must be deaf if he didnt hear the drill. mind you they dont hear a thing when sleeping.

That hole looks like the drill was a sledge hammer.

Ski masks !

Was Vanessa Mae involved in this too ?

Yes, she was recruited for her skinniness and ability to crawl through small holes. The proceeds will go towards her qualification for her next Olympic sport - cane ball.

I am surprised they left the fish in the tank. It would have made a tasty refreshment.

At the speed she is "competing", she should be about 20 meters from the crime-scene by now!!

thieves knew the layout of the hotel as well as they know which room to request in order to get to the office. Swissotel Le Concorde Hotel on Ractchada is not that well known and most hotels if not located around sukhumvit are half empty . Its not hard to get by with all the noise. You probably only need four big hits with a sledge hammer and you can get through by looking at the thickness of that wall.

Perhaps there was a hotel accomplice? No security footage from the hotel?

If he was wearing a pantyhose than yes, it would be her....

"where are the internal wall studs"

Thai walls are built by magnificent, world class Thai construction crews.

Not same as stupid Farang construction...
