A video on the Pattaya Online Facebook site shows the chief of the national tourist police and Pattaya police chief Pol Col Apichai Krobpetch sorting out a theft in the seaside ‘World Class Family Resort’.

An alleged ladyboy thief, 23 year old Sunthorn Huajaipetch from Nakorn Ratchasima, had been nabbed after a theft along the notorious Walking Street.

35 year old Italian Daniele Freda says he had been walking past the Oasis Bar when the lady boy came up and ‘grabbed’ the tourist suggesting some sexual activity. Not long after the tourist realised he had lost his wallet and went to the police.

Sunthorn admitted everything. ‘She’ said after lifting the tourist’s wallet she had put it in a trash can and retrieved it after the tourist was out of sight. Mr Freda say she had stolen 5,270 baht in cash.
