Man is heartbroken after boyfriend steals over 200,000 baht of gold accessories
A Thai man filed a complaint with the police in Samut Prakarn province near Bangkok yesterday after his boyfriend stole over 200,000 baht of gold accessories.
The victim, a 69 year old man named Songchai “Noobird” Maicharoen, allowed reporters from Channel 3 to visit his house to conduct an interview regarding the theft case. The house of the alleged thief’s boyfriend, a 28 year old man named Geng, is located only 50 metres away from Noobird’s home.
Noobird revealed that he and Geng had been in a relationship for about six months, and had no idea that Geng had a habit of stealing as he was introverted. On the day of the incident, Geng was at home alone because Noobird visited a neighbour. Upon returning home, he discovered that Geng was already gone, along with his valuable assets.
Noobird further disclosed that Geng knew where he kept all his gold accessories. The stolen items included three gold bracelets, one gold necklace, one gold ring, and a watch worth over 200,000 baht. Geng has not returned to his house and blocked Noobird’s phone and social media accounts.
Noobird disclosed that he allowed Geng to wear his watch and gold ring but he apparently didn’t enjoy wearing them. He always left them behind saying he felt uncomfortable when wearing them. He did not expect that Geng would do this to him.
Noobird urged Geng to come back and return his gold belongings adding he will drop the charge if he returns. If not, he will let the police prosecute Geng.
Geng’s uncle spoke to the media regarding the issue and stated that he was unaware of his nephew’s whereabouts. He had noticed Geng wearing gold accessories before he went missing and assumed that Noobird had given them to him. Although he did not inquire about it, he wondered about the extent of Noobird’s affection for Geng, as the items were valuable.
The uncle clarified that he intended to remain impartial. If Geng contacted him, he would persuade his nephew to return the stolen items. Furthermore, he asserted that Geng would not have taken the assets without Noobird’s permission to wear them.
As of now, the suspect is still being sought, and the investigation is ongoing.
