Agree with waters, discussion 3, and the fact that this suspect reportedly is ths or that has nothing to do with the entire story and should of course never have been mentioned.

After reading your comment re khatoey pick pocket gangs stealing wallets when passing through the Sukhumvit area I was wondering how many wallets you've had stolen from them. More than 1?

Pickpockets come in all sizes, sexes, and ages.

Maybe safer if you walked on the other side of the street, huh?

So what about the khatoey pickpocket gangs that prey on tourist in the tourist areas along Sukhumwit? You have to keep your hand on your wallet when you pass through the area west of Asoke.
