Dutch man arrested for smoking marijuana

[transam]

Ah a quality student on an Ed visa, wonder if he is a digital pikey as well ? Wonder which school in Pattaya ? Guess his attendance register was up to date

Did you read the article?

What ya doing on here, thought you would be on the KT threads as chief of the RTP glee club ?

............excellent.

[lil fluffy clouds]

strewth would not want to bump into him down a dark alley.

What would you prefer? A politician?...

[MJCM]

What about the last line of the article "taken into custody for further execution"

If you ae going to quot qout it correctly or dont quot.

They changed the text, what I wrote was what was in the article originally !

[lil fluffy clouds]

He should be banned from Thailand for life, based on his looks only.

Looks over deeds huh?

Deep...

[Docno]

I actually met this guy a couple years back. He was a pretty laid back and friendly guy. Wasn't exactly what you would expect from a guy covered in face tats.

Exactly. I met him a few years ago up there. Had seen him wandering about town, and he looked like someone I wouldn't want to meet. Then one night, while hanging out in a pub with some local farangs, he stopped buy and sat with us at the table. Turned out he was a nice and very articulate and intelligent guy. Nothing like he appears on the outside and how he obviously looks to people here.

Meanwhile.....400,000+ Yaba users can continue their habit..........

[SOTIRIOS]

....they do not mention any quantity of anything seized....

...seems like someone did not like him for some reason...maybe appearance...who knows.....

...and the police made him their cause......

...while hundreds of thousands of pills pass daily through Thailand....if we go by the headlines.....

....20 years....regular funds coming in from overseas........11 years at the same house......not bothering anyone.....

...bravo....???

[IAMHERE]

A Police Col ?

Even though I don't smoke the stuff anymore, I do think it should be legalised. However, in a country where the laws are pretty strict on drugs, for which they are stricter than wrong visa, prostitution etc, it's best to keep low profile if you're going to dab in it.

And though, it's up to him how he looks and I'm all for people looking a bit different, the way he covers his face in tattoos is going to make him a marked case and the locals will be wary and we all know how important the way you look and carry yourself is here, he really should have kept away from anything to arouse cops interest.

The way some people go to Government places with their wife beater vest, some who walk around Thailand as if they've had a bong too many, young dumb farang approaching groups of Thais asking for coke (seen it happen in Demo, my lord!) aren't doing themselves any favours at keeping out of watchful and resentful eyes.

[lostinisaan]

I guess he isn't someone that blends in

Unless he walked into a really dark & scary forest . . . . . you'd never see him . . . . . . . .until he smiled, of course ! ! ! ! !

I met him once. He was very friendly. Had a bad accident in his youth that left him maimed for life. He can still smile though. Vince.JPG

Happened before and will happen again.

Somebody in Holland takes his identity for some cash. He opens letters, forwards them to the scumbag, if it's really important, the guy fills all in, sends it back and the Dutch government ( better said the tax payers) give him money, he doesn't deserve.

There's a Dutch guy in Sisaket about 10 years ago, who did that. His friend lived in his apartment, where he grew pot, sold it and sent some cash to him every month.

But he also received the 700 Euros from his government, which his "friend" transferred to Thailand for him.

He got busted once in Sisaket, cops found three grams and put him behind bars. His girl friend knew some higher ranked cops and bailed him out. Then he decided to sell pot in Hua Hin, until they sold to an undercover cop.

He was from Den Haag and the first thing that he did was to hang his partner, originally from Amsterdam. That's why he'd some extra benefits....

He could still manage to get his passport for a "short time", to change money.

He jumped on his Chinese super Chopper, drove to Sisaket and found a way to cross the border to Cambodia, flew to Holland via Bangkok.

This guy looks so shocking weird that it's already insane. His monster teeth seem to make him smile all the time.

Time for him to wear his wooden shoes again. I wouldn't be surprised if the Dutch embassy was also a sort of shocked that a guy who received social welfare money got caught in Thailand.

Scumbags are scumbags and if they're trying to live on other peoples' money, it's way too much. Such people are the reason why certain social systems in Europe are struggling right now and changes were done, which really hurt those who need help.

Who'll be the first and use his face as his/her avatar? Transam, you could change your photo after such a long time..Lol.--

"In his passport which is issued at Amsterdam on May 2014, shows that he has Education Visa stating that he registered for course at Pattaya Language and Computer School."

Thats why no more ed visa now, we dont need this kind of people here, send back the trash where it came from.

What exactly is he doing that has him be trash in your opinion? Who has he harmed so badly by his lifestyle?

[Gentmartin]

I have also bumped into this guy on my travels a couple of times, and he came across as a really nice bloke.

However, he's broken the law, and he's screwing things up for others who are genuine students on ed visas. Knowingly do the crime then you know the risks and consequences. Thats life.

[KonaRain]

I have land..but minimum ssi keeps me alive until my next recording or big idea..

I have a large facebook net..if only..!

Nite..

Alohz

[KonaRain]

Scary, huh?

Maybe the Dutch tax payers, who have to jump in and pay those scumbags their social welfare money? Would any of my kids see this guy, the'd freak out and run.

And Holland already has huge problems with the non functioning "Multi cultural" problem.

That's maybe, why some people call him trash. You seem to miss your friend a lot.

[Tchooptip]

The man seems to have only one hand, how did they managed to handcuffed him?

[mike324]

thailand needs to start deporting these bums that abuse the system and shut down all these shady language schools

[Equalizer]

Quote me if i am wrong but the guy looks like an amputee, his let hand is missing. Probably explains the 700 euro per month. As for the drug dealer chestnut, well yes i know it is illegal to smoke pot here however when you consider this country is an open pharmaceutical chemist and you can freely buy prescription drugs on the street corner it does leave one a little bemused how they can show a picture of a table with a little plastic bowl in the middle along with a few joints worth in it. As for the knives you can walk through any market in Thailand and buy any of those as they are on display and freely available for sale. Most comments here are based purely on the way he looks and how he has been portrayed, basically my dear Watson he is doing nothing more damaging that a system that allows open drug abuse that can be accessed in most pharmacies here.

[Greg Nixon]

Lock him for 5 to 10 then deport him. He is one of many who give foreigners a bad reputation.

He is an amputee sir, and i will further add that if he was living in Holland it would be costing the tax payer a lot more because he would be there using the resources, he can not work so he chooses to spare the Dutch people further expense by living a lonely nomadic lifestyle in Asia. Did you think of that one EH EH EH?????

[Jasun]

"The only source of income is from Dutch government that sends him 700 Euro per month"

How do you get onto that deal at the age of 49?

[Dogmatix]

This man obviously went to great lengths to be inconspicuous.

Is it illegal to possess leaflets about male hormone products?

The quantity of the drug on the chopping board seems to be very little.

I wonder why he didn't just hang out smoking dope in Amsterdam without hassles from the law.

[Dogmatix]

"The only source of income is from Dutch government that sends him 700 Euro per month"

Perhaps he got a a disability allowance after disfiguring himself with black ink?

[micmichd]

What were his needles for? Burning hashish or what?

[chrisinth]

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

A very nice representitive from his country, NOT. And he gets every month 700 , = nearly 30,000 thb, unbelievable.

Lets not jump to conclusions before the facts. Unless you know better (and I may have overlooked it............ ), the payment he is receiving, could be disability payment. Am saying this due to the lose of his left hand.

He could have been in the armed forces, he could have been a policeman, bank manager, whatever. They generally look after their own and Bt28,700 a month isn't out of the realms of possibility.

I learnt never to judge a book by its cover many, many years ago. Bet he could have an interesting story, maybe.

[Ve37]

Pathetic - armed officers all because of a guy with a bong and lots of tattoos a a collection of knoves.

Well, don't forget the "leaflet of male hormone products." The police seemed very interested in that,..so much so, that they confiscated it, and made sure it was reported.

[orosee]

Thus guy's probably better company than most of the posters in this thread. What a judgmental bunch of tossers. And not a few who'd have fit in perfectly in Soviet Russia. Heads down, conform, the powers are always right.

Thailand, haven of omega males?

"Non functioning multicultural problem" ?

Are you talking about Amsterdam or the rest of Holland?
