PHUKET: -- Police yesterday (Jan 13) arrested two suspects in connection with two robberies of foreigners that took place on Thursday (Jan 7) and Friday (Jan 8) last week. They are currently looking for one more suspect alleged to also be involved.

Following up on two separates incidents in which a British woman was robbed last Thursday and a Russian man last Friday Jan 8, Thung Thong police yesterday arrested 23-year-old Thiradet “Oat” Chotika for his alleged involvement in the crimes.

Police discovered Thiradet's alleged involvement in the robberies through CCTV footage of the incident last Thursday, prompting the issuance of an arrest warrant.

When making the arrest, Thiradet was found to be in possession of a Sony compact camera which police believe was robbed from the Russian man last Friday, said Supt Chuawalit.

After Thiradet's arrest, police obtained information leading to the apprehension of Supachai “Toei” Chotpram, 20, whose owns the motorbike used in the robberies. During the arrest, they found in his possession a black iPhone 5 which matched the description of one of the items stolen in the first robbery on Jan 7, said Supt Chuawalit.

My guess would be that they do not want the 3rd accomplice to get wind of the fact that they have been arrested, while at the same time able to show some action on tourists.

Speculation....I know....

These 2 small-time robbers surely have some connections. That's why their faces cannot be shown - somebody will pay a "fine" and they will be out on the streets in 2-3 hours without any charges.
