Curry Seller Loses Fight and 80,000 baht Necklace to Snatcher

Report by Pattaya One News Team

 

 

PATTAYA: -- At 3am on the morning of October 11, Pattaya police were informed of a robbery and assault in front of the Pattaya Business Administration Technology College (PBAC) on Naklua Road, Pattaya.

 

Mr Wasan Klinobchov and his wife Dussadee Tnavornrat, who own a well-known curry shop in north Pattaya, had a four baht gold necklace, worth around 80,000 baht, stolen as they were on their way home.

 

The suspect, however, fell off his motorbike as he made a getaway and Mrs Tnavornrat caught up with him in the middle of the road.

 

The suspect, aged between 20-25 years old fought back and knocked the lady down with a punch to the face.

 

As her husband went to help her the suspect escaped on a second motorbike being ridden by an accomplice.

 

Officers set up a checkpoint but failed to catch the thieves. However, they believe they know their identities and that they are part of a criminal gang who have been carrying out similar robberies around town.

Knows someone the location of the curry shop? I love Thai curry's but find it hard to find a decent one.

Walking around Pattaya with a 4 baht gold necklace in full view is just asking for trouble.

Expecting Pattaya police to do their job is just asking for the impossible.

Perhaps it was one of the usual snatch-less snatchers.

May be he is a well known and respected person and therefore he felt always safe. There is a rich Thai man in Jomtien who walks around with his gold necklace and plenty of Buddha chains.
