GOLDBUGGY Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 It was planned perfectly. Who walks into a store with a gun in his pocket at the exact time the largest amount of money is there and being counted to be shipped to the bank? Nobody!

BigC Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 he is off the island or keeping low with some cash now Either that or I some stupid drug fuelled binge with woman and arrogance Man is right 200 k is not much to worth along sentence for It's only 4 k English when u add that into how much one gets paid for dangers jobs such is in Iraq about 750 pounds per day 200 k is nothing when comparing to how much bird one can receive I have some friends that are so called em. Well to do people and even they are shocked to see forangs coming to the worst country in he world to be caught for this type of crime and these people know there business They are absolutely baffled. Out here 7 years is considered a short sentence 15 years is not too bad plus the legal system is down to a judge no jury and hopefully a persuasive lawyer in your corner Sent from my iPhone using ThaiVisa app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheOggMonster Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 This is more than likely the work of an organized crime gang operating not only in Koh Samui but the whole of the country. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes this man planned this covered number plate glasses probably a wig Gun ( don't know if real or not ) Might ( a guess ) be part of the same Albanian mob that were caught snatching a bag, reckon those 2 were part of a bigger gang Could have been an insinuation. People from very poor countries problem have less to lose that richer European countries which makes them very dangerous as they shall do petty crime which puts us all on the receiving end Sent from my iPhone using ThaiVisa app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ukrules Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Can't be many white Vios in Samui but the question is will the police really investigate properly? The Vios is one of the most common cars out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joshstiles Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 I'll bet if they check the robbers waste baskets in his home, they will find the white paper used to cover the license plate....did anyone think of that??? errrrrrrrrrr?? Wha??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hanno Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Another quality tourist. It took 47 posts, my guess was much lower! Like I said in an earlier post: TV is just not what it used to be. In the good old times, you know, before the Russians and Chinese having the audacity to travel to Thailand, that remark would have come within 10 posts of the OP. Shocking how everything is heading downhill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigC Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 (edited) If it is falang how come he didn't take some cigarettes and condoms? What is that in his pocket? Passport?Maybe went straight to airport and off before bib had chance to put the pieces of the puzzle together If that is the case then he would have either dumped the car near by or returned it to the airport Sent from my iPhone using ThaiVisa app Edited April 30, 2014 by BigC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don;t think he was tempted if he had the foresight to cover the license plate. And well there's the gun too eh? That's really not going to help his case. True that. I am sure most foreigners would have no idea where to just go an pick up a gun; I certainly don't. Who knows if it was a reel gun ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
