Well done Swedish man!

It is reassuring that there are still people who ignore all the 'good' advice given on this forum, who have a pair, and aren't afraid of pack attacks while confronting Thais that have done them wrong.

And for 240 THB and a Samsung!

Well done the Swede...................

But the Swede is still missing his phone and the money. I am not sure or not whether the sentance...

The police sent Mr. Sujinda with the stolen items to the inquiry official in order to be prosecuted further according to the Thai law.

is sarcasm or not.

Is it common in Pattaya for men to walk around shirtless like the fellow in the background. I tried it jogging in Chiang Mai and got some dirty looks.

Sadly yes.

Even see them in Malls and GoGo bars.

Spotted Thais doing it now so they are picking up the sloppy behaviour.

Chiang Mai perhaps remains a little more reserved.

From the article (which you didn't read):

Mr. Mohammad told police that he was swimming with his friend and left his bag on the beach when he saw Mr. Sujinda walk over to it and stole some of his belongings. He then quickly got out of the sea and chased after him up soi 7 but the disappeared. Therefore, Mr. Mohammad went to notify the police and while he was walking back to his hotel he spotted Mr. Sujinda ( thief) walking near Top’s Supermarket so he ran over and caught him.

I did read the article before posting. The man (shirtless) appears to be a bystander. If he was the Swede who apprehended the thug he would have been made to point a finger at the culprit!
