webfact Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 Robbery at Pattaya diner. Was it the fake watch vendor? By Digital Admin - PATTAYA: -- At 9pm, on the evening of November 9, Pattaya police received reports of a theft at Lee Diners, a restaurant on Second Road, central Pattaya. The victim, thirty-eight year old Mr Georges Falque, a tourist from Belgium, was having dinner with his girlfriend, Ms Supab Raksapakdee, when a young Thai man approaced and appeared to be selling fake watches. The couple declined and continued with their meal but, soon afterwards, Mr Falque realized his bag, hanging at the back of his chair, was missing. Inside was 10,000 baht in cash. Investigating officers have taken a statement but it appears the CCTV security system is not working and so nobody has any idea who stole the bag.

zaphod reborn Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 Proper shop owners do not allow outside vendors on their premises. Even though it is Pattaya, a shop owner has a duty to chase them away and report them for trespass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, it could easily occur only half as often in Belgium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have just as little duty to report them for trespass. There is something called the Restatement of Law. It is essentially a guide of legal principles that have survived for hundreds of years in the common law. The duty of an innkeeper (which includes a restaurant owner) is to protect their customers from unreasonable risk of harm, especially where a failure to act makes the premises unsafe (which includes purely property loss). Obviously, you are far more wise that hundreds of years of decisions made by common law judges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, it's seems that I may be "wiser" (to use your word) than you are, or at least I can read better than you. What you refer to is applicable only under US law (this is Thailand) and even in the US the Restatements are not any indication of duty and are not binding in any way. Restatements of Law did not exist before 1923 so where do you get the "hundreds of years" bit from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaphod reborn Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 Nope, Restatement is common law. It includes all common law jurisdictions, not just US jurisdictions, and is considered the majority view without reference to statutory schemes. Restatement summarizes hundreds of years of legal precedents, even though it is only updated once every few decades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
