    Probably just a linguistic misunderstanding. The Abbot told them to 'sod off', but they thought he said 'Smirnoff'

Sorry misunderstanding blink.png

When I read the headline I thought they were talking about Putin and some russian ministers broke into the temple

Have they been punished? Will they be punished? I doubt it, they will be let off with a warning so as not to upset the tourists.

Ah i doubt a shred of what the story says is true, more like they wanted to become ordained as monks but cant speak a word of english, the guy has the monk pali book in front of him. All they have to say is they wanted to become monks. On your way!

if the police had only been 10m minutes later it would have been 2 cases of Hari Kari. no doubt they could not live with loss of face all of their fellow countrymen had brought down on them.

oh the ignominy of it all!

Russians know how to pay off the police. These two will be going home very shortly.

Correct. If there are any nationals that know how to play the corruption game better than the Thai's, it's the Russians.

If they have the money. This might come as a shock, they are not all millionaires !shock1.gif

Jail, Jail, Jail for these idiots, who don't respect anything here.

What a silly Topic. Some Russians had some fun and all the Russian haters come out from their dungeon. clap2.gif

Why are there so many Russian haters ?? Think carefully......

Maybe the monk said out fck ya, but they thought he said vodka.

Phuket is German, Pattaya is Russian and the muslims are creeping in everywhere. Where is the Thailand I know and love?

...And you have more of a right to be here than anybody else because...?

To be fair, it seems the police handled this pretty cool; have a chat and bung them in the back of a pickup. If a couple of druggies in a church with knives in the West or in a mosque in the... West, I'm sure there would be sirens, tasers, peashooters, the whole 9 yards.

Do German and Russian Muslims count as Muslims to you?

Mimicking fugitive Thai monks perhaps?

Deported? Nope, they should be jailed.

<Head shake> Perhaps some Thais should go to Russia and dress up as Russian Orthodox priests. Tit for tat I'm thinking -- then it's over.

Because he's a law abiding citizen perhaps.?

Maybe you have missed all the wrongdoings of Russian who hang about bars in Pattaya but don't seem to have a daytime job.

I used to love going for a meal down Sukhumvit in Bangkok in the early hours now it's littered by black pimps and their molls....damned if I want to mix with a bunch of drug dealing pimps.....love to know how many of them are here legit.

Expats come here to start a new life or retire but the way it's going unless you want to be an apprentice drug dealer or willie the pimp you might be better choosing another country.

This Army would be good guy cleaned up Sukhumvit during the day by putting a lot of hard working Thais out of a job or at least halving their income but let the russian and african hookers stay...........how messed up is that?

Can't really comment on Muslims other than to say to them us westerners are infadels......they say there are a lot of good Muslim people. How they know that beats me because they keep themselves to themselves hide their wives faces and ignore western people if at all possible.

Blacks Muslims Indian are all the same they form cliques and don't mix with others..........German's, Brit's, Aussies, Yanks, Dutch, Danish etc mix with anyone and everyone.

Is it any surprise people are wary of them?

    narcotics eeffect should be very good if they became so mad

    Those 2 clowns should be instantly deported and permanently black listed from Thailand.

    Or inducted into the priesthood.

    This behaviour only confirms my prejudices.

    There has been a massive increase in the poor quality of visitors this year.

    Yes, and many of them found their way to this forum, particularly to this thread. Thanks god, the most of this keyboard warriors have nothing to say, outside, in the real world. Only small lights.

    In the USA, they would have got shot ( if black, real fast, not a 4th second of doubt, and if white, by a 10 second lapse)

    What about if Asian-American? smile.png

    Why in every thread on TV do we have to read ''In the USA..''?

    UPDATE:

    'High Russian' Suspect Stabs Policeman While In Custody

    By Khaosod English

    MAE HONG SON — One of the two Russian men who were arrested for breaking into a temple in northern Thailand on Sunday stabbed a police officer while in custody yesterday, police say.

    The suspect, identified as Voge Vladimir (name transcribed from Thai text), was reportedly being led from his holding cell at Pai Police Station to the immigration department when he stabbed Lt. Prasert Puttawong across the head and wrist.

    Police officers and the other suspect then tackled Vladimir and held him down, while Lt. Prasert was sent to hospital. Medical workers say his condition is “severe” but gradually improving.

    Police say Vladimir’s knife was hidden beneath his clothes, and officers failed to spot it when they searched him after his arrest on 14 December.

    Vladimir and his accomplice, Kubik Kachchek (name transcribed from Thai text), were arrested on Sunday after they broke into a temple in the resort town of Pai.

    Sounds like these two Russians are low thugs and must be punished respectively.

    What a silly Topic. Some Russians had some fun and all the Russian haters come out from their dungeon. clap2.gif

    It is not about hating. It is about common sense. Those two individuals do not have it, and besides that they are dangerous. So they must be treated accordingly to their actions. No mercy from my part.
