webfact Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Kiwi caught with drugs in Phuket also wanted back homeThe Phuket NewsMadgwick/Taylor after his arrest in Phuket.HAMILTON, NEW ZEALAND: The New Zealander caught in Phuket on meth and cocaine possession charges on Christmas Eve is also wanted in his home country on credit card fraud charges, the New Zealand Herald reports.The man, named by Patong police as Taylor Grainge, was arrested last week after police caught him with 1.2g of methamphetamine and 0.95g of cocaine, enough to merit a charge of possession with intent to sell.The Herald reports that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade has identified the man as Grainge Taylor. It also goes on the report that he was originally known in New Zealand as Grainge Marriott Madgwick and officially changed his surname to Tayler – believed to be his wife’s surname – after police began investigating allegations of credit card fraud against him in 2010.He left the country the following month under his new name, before a warrant was issued for his arrest in August 2012.“The warrant was issued due to Mr Madgwick failing to appear on a number of fraud-related charges,” a police spokesman told The New Zealand Herald, confirming that the warrant is still active.Madgewick, as he was then, allegedly got hold of te credit card details of friends or relatives and then applied online for secondary cards – as many as 10 of them.He then spent more than NZ$100,000 (B2.5 million) on the cards, with the amounts being charged to the primary card holder.His case sparked an overhaul of Westpac’s online credit card application process.Read the original New Zealand Herald story here.Source: http://www.thephuketnews.com/kiwi-caught-with-drugs-in-phuket-also-wanted-back-home-50351.php-- Phuket News 2014-12-30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Toknarok Posted December 30, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted December 30, 2014 What a charming fella. Ripped off his friends and relatives (allegedly) then did a runner to Thailand (don't they all?) and now gets busted for Class A drugs here. Just the sort of tourist Thailand needs, another farang giving us a further bad name, no wonder some Thais don't like us. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Lawrence Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Dumb Fork. At least he is in the right place, now. Bet his relatives will leave him in Thailand? Then he can come home and do the NZ goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hansgruber Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Takes a special type of scum to do that to friends and relatives. Let him experience the overcrowded jail here and then go back to NZ and enjoy the Maori hospitality in their prison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My advice......toughen up. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vijer Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 better he stays here in jail as in NZ he will get too many rights as a criminal let the thais show him what prison should be like Which is why he seems untroubled, he will get extradited to NZ and do a short stint for credit fraud and be out free in a few years.

I couldn't care less what the Thai's think of us all. We will always be "farang" - a lower form of life than a Thai.
