Frenchman 1st overstay of 2019

A French man became the first overstay arrest of the year when Immigration Police captured him in front of his South Pattaya home.

 

Guillaume Lucien Shetta Wagner, 29, had started acting nervously when he spotted patrol police Jan. 3. The visa in his passport was found to have expired 200 days ago.

 

Wagner told police he had overstayed because his friend told him he could stay as long as he liked and then just pay the 20,000-baht fine at the airport when he left.

 

He was informed that overstaying is a criminal offense and he will now be deported and banned from the kingdom for five years.

Memo to police or memo to Frenchmen?

[colinneil 38,969]

Just shows you that BJ is all talk, but little action, he said all overstayers would be flushed out a couple of months ago.

I here rumours of people being kicked out for 1 day over stay is there any facts or news reports to this rumours or twisted gossip

 

I  know Someone that overstayed accidently by 1 month and they allowed him to pay the fine but gave him a strict warning plus it was his first overstay

What's that got to do with it but, anyway, what do you mean, "not a word"?  It was all over the press!

[RichardColeman 6,148]

But, but, is there not a story on here saying there were no overstayers to some trifle chested immigration guy's knowledge ?

Captured? Not arrested, apprehended, or detained.

What sort of animal did the journalist think it was?  Did they use a lassoo on the neck, or a rope around one of the rear legs?

Overstayer will be caught all the time every year 

BJ is good he actually do something about this problem 

[Redline 2,155]

Time to stop reporting on overstays~especially if they expect 40 million tourists a year

[balo 9,614]

And probably another 200 000 overstayers to catch .

Apparently France is a war zone... so he could demand refugee status.
