The Beguiled Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 Lets encourage other low life to "ave a go" by telling the world how easy it is to rob a money van and how much you can take. Amazing Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maidee Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 i always wondered why it did not happen more in this country ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALLSEEINGEYE Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 was in Mexico years ago, when those boys are carrying the cash they have weapons drawn and fingers n the trigger. Here it would be like taking candy from a baby. I am surprised it doesn't happen more too. Although with the police losing a lot of their tea money I expect this and kidnappings to increase.

jaiyen Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 Surely there must be a limit as too how much is in a bag. When I was young I worked for Securicor for a while and the limit was 10,000 Pounds per bag. You could only carry 1 bag at a time. I got caught by an inspector carrying 10 bags at a place where we had to deliver over 30 bags and had a 5 minute walk. We both got dismissed !! Didnt care. Went on to much better things. Security for money transport has been and always will be a problem unless you have 10 armed guards. Not a legal or feasible idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veeke Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 Lack of commitment? Intelligence lapse? System weakness? or all of them? One is not sure whether the handcuffed Security Officer is part of the game? One is not sure whether such criminals are booked ever? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xen Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 inside job ? No - probably out for an evening ride and just came around the corner and realised they had a golden opportunity to get some cash to buy a new pick up and one of them gigantic televisions. And it was just their good kharma they had some guns with them. It was all pre-ordained by higher forces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thian Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 The other day i was watching how Thai refill an ATM in a mall. It's just a guy without any weapons or guards who's doing that in public. Now try that in Europe this way. Also i always wonder what those security guys in a bank can do without any weapons or muscles. Being a bankrobber in Thailand must be pretty dangerous though, i guess anybody is allowed to stop the robbers without consequenses. And there are more guns on the streets then we think.
