“We were made aware of the video at about 2pm yesterday,” said Lt Col Sutthichai Thianpho of the Patong Police. “It didn’t take long to track down the suspects, as we had the licence plate number of the vehicle.”

At last the Thai's now know how to get educated....walk around topless and someone will pull you in for education !

[NeverSure]

"Busted: Topless tourists exposed after joyride video sent to police."

I thought they were exposed before the... The police required a reenactment? Nevermind. LOL.

[Just1Voice]

They're tourists. They didn't know that what they were doing is reserved for "Thai Only" under the law.

And to make sure it was them in the video, the police had them strip down nude.....You know!....Just to be sure!

[Felt 35]

exposing their bare breasts to those on the streets of Patong

...and in the next soi more than bare breast are on show for a few purple notes....the culture and religion are no excuse any more Thailand...the Western world know already why the most sold product at 7-eleven are kondoms and they are not hanging in the car mirror as decoration

[ajarnmarc]

Happy New Year...was probably all they were trying to express.

Girls just want to have fun,

and since a lot of men walk into banks,

shopping centers, and restaurants without their shirts on,

it should be allowed for the women to do the same, no?

I'm hopeful we can agree it's a better view on the women side

More evidence that police around the nation are doing their bit to protect the citizens of Thailand and keep them safe.

Let's not worry too much about road fatalities or drug dealers or jealous husbands shooting their wives.

Fascinating how they named both gals yet many Thai felons go unnamed in articles about serious crimes they commit.

And talk about the police wasting their time? I guess the 1000 baht fine was probably worth her while. Not a bad days pay.

[SOTIRIOS]

....were the Songkran Thai Dancers ever fined.....

[AloisAmrein]

Thailand is the world's biggest brothel, an now this! Pure hypocrisy, covered by "Thai culture".

[Pib]

Will they be required to re-enact their crime? If so, I sure hope the police tell us when it's scheduled for.

[Sydebolle]

Well, I happen to see the video and am surprised, that these two girls got all the attention.

Just wondering what is going on in all this go-go bars in Patong, Patpong and Walking street. I, for one, saw considerably juicier stuff than these two twenagers hanging out of a CRV with a bottle of water while inching its way through Patong.

Guess it has to do with work permits; as the bust in Pattaya's best known Russian/Uzbekistani Go-Go bar proved So we all know now, have work permit and plenty of cash - no promprem!

I wish all those fat men with their tits hanging down would be fined 500 Baht and told to cover up.

"taught a lesson about Thai culture."

I expect that lesson was simply the guidance of, You can't do public nudity in Thailand unless the appropriate stuffed envelopes have already been handed out to authorities.

after seeing some western women walking about here i would not only prefer them to keep there clothes on but to wear a face mask as well

Jesus wept......

Couldn't agree more. They often also wear speedos! Is terrifying! They should be fined 10,000 baht and sent for re-education

[soalbundy]

They were looking for a Wal-Mart

[cyberfarang]

They do this deliberately to gain publicity, get themselves a name on the media and show off to their mates. To them it`s just a laugh and the 500 baht fine means nothing, money well spent as far as they are concerned.

A prison sentence or a heavy fine would have been more appropriate otherwise this behavior is going to gain more popularity in the future.

i wish those fat sexual deviants in see through speedos/underwear hanging around kids area at the beach would be fined and jailed, but thats just a dream. Nai harn lake is filled with these guys.

Now, haul in the topless obese euro trash men on the beach. They make me nauseus. Never mind the thai lady at Big C breast feeding in pubic.

[tracker1]

Austrian or Australian there a few kilometers apart ?

[mick01827]

Pair of slags!

'The two woemn receive a lesson in Thai culture from a female police officer.' Presumably, the Thai sex industry didn't feature in the lecture?
