Trying for his 2 minutes of attention. Model, indeed. Must be quite the lucrative job, as he is working as an unlicensed english "tutor" in the interim.

he is a ting tong actor,

so he have another WP !!

not as teacher !!

or ting tong actor for thais as good to be an english teacher ?

Where he teaching ? in Soi Nana ?

Amazing how many bitter people have already posted not on the actual topic but instead choose some snide remark against a young innocent man....

What bitter, twisted and jealous characters Thai Visa sometimes attracts....

Lighten up mate he's an Aussie it's part of our heritage to rip on each other. He's a big boy I'm sure he'll be sweet. Water off a duck's back an all that. I doubt young Sunny gives a tinkers about the opinions of anyone posting on Thai Visa somehow. Good on you for going into bat for the young bloke however...I'm sure he'll be grateful for your support

And this would be a correct statement..., "I doubt young Sunny gives a tinkers about the opinions of anyone posting on Thai Visa somehow".

Clear all bullshit many English speak (farang) who are illegal n sleep on road in Thailand , Thai immigration should clean in one months .

They can not kick out all this illegal teachers and packpackers,

Than someone would think only Chinese anti tourists are coming to Thailand !!

another high class Australian under investigation in the LOS

Publicity hungry actor.

With a little help from some friends and the social media he got all the attention he needed to "turn himself" in. What a moron.

Au contraire..... I think he gives a huge flying 'tinker'... The opinions circulated on many different social media outlets is what forced him into visiting the Police....

His Photo was circulated on Facebook, Panthip Forum, ThaiVisa Forum, WhatsApp and Line Messenger... All contributed in some degree towards what I can only imagine was a somewhat fearful time for this man... right up until the BiB disagreed him as a suspect and he could breathe a sigh of relief (and take a selfie).

well that gave us something to talk about for 30 seconds

Model/actor/fashion blogger/tutor quite a resume young fella now who the <deleted> are you again.. Oh Sunny Burns right 555

and this is my friend Sandy

Best thing to-do is clear this up as vigilantes could end his trip abruptly

" .I had no other choice but to go to the police..." he said" That's called 'Doing the right thing'! If innocent, still good to retain a lawyer just in case!

He looks nothing like backpack man. Can't the Thais tell the difference between a caucasian and a western Asian? Yes, I know both words contain the word "asian" but you can pretty much write off the "model" by the color of his skin.

The CCTV footage that I saw looked very grainy/low quality. I'd have to seriously question how much of an ID could be gained from it? (or even the ethnicity of the person).

Unless this guy can grow a beard in 24 hours its not him.

How do you know he has no work permit to teach.

call me cynical, but the amount of press this guy is getting, it seems that he has decided this is an excellent opportunity for self promotion.

Why not?

Looks like a pathetic attempt at free publicity to me.....lol

Clear all bullshit many English speak (farang) who are illegal n sleep on road in Thailand , Thai immigration should clean in one months .

Keep it coming mushie,you'll do well here.

They both look like the Boston bomber - Dzokhar Tsarnaev

15 minutes of fame

or... we're not jealous (of what, btw), just not naive.

selfies posted online at a questioning related to a horrific crime. perhaps you are the type who would also take/post a selfie in such a circumstance. i, for one, am not; and find it highly inappropriate/self absorbed/pathetic. add in his aggressive desire to talk to media outlets and, ummm, do i really need to spell this out for you?

Maybe you would also get aggressive if you would be called a terrorist.

Needs a hair cut and shave, what is it with the Farang who come here and look worse than the locals ??

I love this topic, it's where all the fat old men go to cry about someone younger and better looking than them.

Interesting. One of my friends, an American who has done some but part acting and modelling was also forced to go to the police yesterday evening after his details were passed on.

Of course actors they disguise themselves don't they.

His details passed on to the police directly or publicised like the Aussie?

god lord mate, you should look half so good.

I thought some bashers were trying to prove that the guy must be an Arab or Muslim ??? No way can be any other westerners right ???

If they are so sure why they don't go and help the police with their detective instinct???

Even the PM Pointed that it was done by the people from North Western corner of Thailand.

We all should wait until the truth is reviled

Genius. you couldnt be funnier if you tried.

Same old same same, Bib blown there load in the wrong hole again. I wonder if they will find some DNA linking him to the bomb to save embarrassment. Mean time the person who did do the deed has long since gone. So whats new today?

He appears to have been in an ad for the Wifi Society, whatever that is. His spoken English sounds pretty good. No noticeable Aussi accent though.

Starting from about 0:45 on the video.

Cracking down on falans?

and one to be a model, and an actor (assuming he works at both). And not forgetting his fashion blog.

after his immigration papers and local address were posted on social media.

This is the bigger uissue, and needs investigation, HOW and WHO posted these ?

So who had copies of his immigration papers and why?

Well, these fabulous effective Immigrations here reuse peoples personal papers ... Copy of passport, bankpapers etc. etc. Once I got an American womans passport copy on the back of a piece of paper an Imm.Officer wrote on ...

Immigration dont care about peoples personal info whatever that might be ... Scary but true
