Sounds like a nutter.

Ever heard of removing evidence?

Police are always rushing to the scene. I've never seen a Thai rush, unless there is a 2 for 1 offer at Starbucks.

I was thinking more about the tie up, rob them, sit down, tidy up the house, chat to bound captives for two hours and then remove tape. Kind of up and down behaviour wouldn't you say?

I assume the tape was still on when he was chatting.

He also left the knife and roll of tape behind so I don't think he was too worried about evidence.

As I say, nutter.

This says to me a friend of the maid.

He didn't even want to inconvenience his g/f so he cleaned the house.

Wasn't there a guy like this in Australia many years ago ?

I remember hearing about it when I was a kid.. maybe someone older remembers it better.

[Emster23]

OK, I'll bite..... "He cleaned us out! Did the windows too!"

[ToddinChonburi]

A bad story with a happy ending, I feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

Or in need of a toilet

Maybe the robber suffers from OCD

[CapeThai]

The robber was all dressed up like a professional robber out of movie and all of the other BS of chatting for 2 hours and cleaning the house.....come on !! Insurance payout of 80K comes to mind.

Thankfully no one's hurt or dead. He's just after valuables.

sounds like a very nice man, a little expensive as a house cleaner with a wage of 40,000 Baht an hour but kind never the less.

[garyk]

Sound like a set up to embarrass the maid. I bet the poor maid is getting razzed up one side and down the other... LOL

Yep, nothing says kindness like tying someone up, gagging them, holding them prisoner at knife point, talking to them as they lay tied and gagged and stealing everything in sight.
