Most likely saw him make the withdrawal and followed him . How would the bank people know where he was going to after he left the bank ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sealbash Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 172,000baht left alone in the car. Can hardly blame the thieves. Niyom Srisawat is an idiot. Absolute moron.Just like my home. Even though I lock the doors, I always remove everything from the house before I go out. Just so I am not labeled a moron if someone should break in to my private property and steal something.

mki8 Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 (edited) is everyone clearly missing the obvious................... Theives dont have a 6th sense, and i doubt they were just breaking into random trucks They knew the money would be inside that truck at that time Obviously they had set something up with the victim (this sounds similar to the guy who car was robbed of a few mkillion baht by some colombians in bkk) They setup a deal with the guy, he goes withdraw the cash, then they rob the cash most likely the guy was going to the temple to balance out his karma for what he was about to do (or thought he was) with the cash Edited November 4, 2016 by mki8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gk10002000 Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 come on. you know this is fishy. Quite possible the thieves somehow knew or saw or got wind of the fact the guy withdrew so much cash. Partial inside job, casual observation or whatever. But why did the guy withdraw so much cash? Coerced? Induced? If that answer makes any sense then ask why then leave the cash in the car? Could be just an old man that is not that smart, but I doubt it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xircal Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 It sounds like it would have been a lot more sensible to wait until after he'd been to the Wat Klang Mai to withdraw that amount of cash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
