A Russian man wanted in his homeland on a robbery charge has been arrested in Pattaya.

 

Police on Thursday arrested the 41 year old man at a boxing gym in the city in Jomtien. 

 

Police swooped after receiving a tip off that a foreigner had been employed illegally to teach boxing classes. 

 

An officer was sent undercover to attend one of the classes the Russian man was alleged to have been teaching.

 

Police say that as well as working without a work permit, the man was on a four year overstay and entered Thailand illegally.

 

The man, who denied all charges, was arrested and is being held pending further legal proceedings.

How can he be on overstay or not have a work permit if he entered illegally and doesn't have a visa ?

Yeah he looks steamed. You can see the anchor in his eyes. If he hit you you’d probably need a sturgeon.

Getting a new passport may no longer be a solution either, considering that they now take your fingerprints and put them on their biometric system?

Give it a month Mr. Ov will be back as Mr. Of without a hitch

Bear with me a moment; i think this was at a certain gym that is notorious for steroid selling and using. I checked it out whilst looking for a gym back in January. Afrer touring the facility, the Thai front desk worker was out front smoking something that was either weed or meth. I didn't want to smell it, so left quickly.

Your point being?

[POMRAKSIAM]

Too many dirt bags running from trouble in their homeland, straight to Pattaya, ....where I call home

I am pleased they caught him, now how about the countless Russian tour joints on Jomtien Beach road with 1 person working (never a Thai)

How is possible that he denied all  chargues? ????  The evidence says all

Yes, it is clear but, curious to see the man in training and without a visa denying the chargues...

Possibly entered as a tourist and decided to stay!
