PHUKET:-- A Phuket man who stole a motorbike and Buddhist artifacts, in two separate crimes, in order to buy drugs was arrested yesterday by Phuket City police.

Following a June 14 complaint by a Ms Sopee Koodkrai, 51, that her motorbike had been stolen in front of her house in Phuket Town, the police located CCTV footage showing a male suspect who looked to be about 30 years old.

The next day, police received a report from a Mr Chusak Jomboon that someone had that day stolen two Luang Phor Chaem statues from his house. CCTV footage showed the suspect in that crime to be the same as the one who had stolen the motorbike.
