Jonathan Fairfield Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 Just released Pattaya snatch thief offends again - then accident puts him back in jail PATTAYA:-- A Pattaya snatch thief released from jail a few days ago was at it again - but ended up in a heap on the tarmac after colliding with a Russian.After snatching a woman's bag on a motorcycle in Sukhumvit Road yesterday he dashed off towards Jomtien and crashed into a Russian's bike coming off and seriously hurting himself.Police found Narong Chanrasami, 23, lying in the road with multiple injuries and his Honda Wave overturned nearby. Also hurt slightly on the elbow was a Russian man, also a motorcyclist,who was involved in the collision with the fleeing suspect. Narong was taken to Banglamung hospital. Also on the scene, some 500 metres from the Grand Condominium three way intersection, was Jirajorn Saenphot, an Udon native, a lady motorcyclist who Narong had robbed further up the road.Her bag contained an ID card, credit card and some cash.Police said that Narong had been released from prison last Saturday where he served time for snatch theft. He was charged with snatch theft again and police added negligent driving for good measure.He was detained by police. -- 2016-04-29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trainman34014 Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 And when he comes out he will do it again as that is how he makes his 'living'. He finds it more lucrative than earning 300 Baht per day working in 7-Eleven or on sweaty building sites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim walker Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 So his 30 days in jail did not work back to the 500Baht fine again that might stop him robbing people. Just put him away for good this time and end his crime career for ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrew55 Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 And the Russian has a problem. (Rented) bike damaged and no one to compensate. Quite right. Even if he owns the bike same problem. I wonder if the police still managed to fine him for something. At least he didn't need to invest in the hospital. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apetley Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 I have a few friends in the Thai Police Force and one of their biggest complaints is just how short prison sentences can be and how quickly convicts are released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same in the UK A 2//3/4 year sentence should be just that. Nothing less. Add on more for bad behaviour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LawrenceN Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Note the fellow standing over the perp with the umbrella. This is Thai compassion. Lowlife just stole and caused a collision, but he's a human being who's not left to broil on the hot pavement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

northernphil Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 What this country needs is a new big prison. Every day we read of perps that should be sent there. Perhaps the prison should be called Inactive Post , all useless plod could be sent to work there so the risk of being sent to Inactive Post might make them do their job properly.

balo Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Good job by the police to arrest him...again. I wonder if the Russian was fined for not wearing a helmet ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beats56 Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 This maybe a bit harsh but if they started canning some of these criminals instead of 500 bt fine and short jail sentence then maybe it will reduce crime. Once they get that they will always remember it and won't want to repeat that experience for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oxforddon Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Post number 14 was spot on. The Thai Penal Code sets the sentences for most offences and sometimes police use that for immediate fines and the Courts, not police, set any jail terms if things get to that stage. This applies to the Ladyboy round ups which can only apply small loitering fines and many other cases for which TV posters bash police. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thhMan Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Thailand has a long way to go with what they air on TV... How the Police conduct their job and what the kids learn in school. When a kid can ride the parents bike to school, no helmet, no license and no consequences, is it any wonder they grow up thinking the same way....

guzzi850m2 Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 So it's not harder punishment as 2nd time offender? They should double up and then after the 3rd consider them hopeless and throw the keys away. I think they do that in the US. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IAMHERE Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Just released Pattaya snatch thief offends again Now, why is that, I wonder.... I'm thinking the thief borrowed money while in jail and has to get money quick to pay a loan shark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soihok Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 (edited) I have a few friends in the Thai Police Force and one of their biggest complaints is just how short prison sentences can be and how quickly convicts are released. To put a different perspective on jail time, my Thai brother in law was convicted of a crime he did not commit. Had the crap beaten out of him by the cops until he was forced to sign a confession, to make the beatings stop. 4 years in prison. It works both ways, unfortunately.

Basil B Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 (edited) If I saw a bag snatch I would love to knock the snatchers of their bike, (accidentally, of course)... Well done to the Russian, hope the pain in his elbow was not long lasting. Edited May 1, 2016 by Basil B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
