Thais in Cambodia Steal Taxi at Toilet Stop
Thais in Cambodia charged with stealing taxi
30 Jun 2022 at 16:16
Cambodian police have arrested three Thais and charged them with stealing a taxi when the driver stopped to go to the toilet.
The Khmer Times reported on Thursday that the Thai suspects, two men and a woman, were arrested in Takeo province and were being interrogated by police.
The news website did not say when they were arrested. The woman was identified only as Wen, 29, from Amphawa district of Samut Songkhram, and the two men as Pak Lamsapit, 20, from Bangkok; and Usen Sukkirati, 27, from Chanthaburi.
They were passengers in a taxi driven by Prung Vuth, travelling from Kandal province to Sihanoukville. The three allegedly drove off in the taxi when the driver made a stop and left the vehicle to urinate, according to the Khmer Times.
Pol Col Duk Thiya, an inspector of Kampot police, said the driver had registered a complaint with police.
The three suspects entered Cambodia through Poipet, the report said. It did not say when.

Three Thai nationals suspected of being detained and sold by a casino have been charged with theft after they were arrested trying to drive back home.
The three Thai workers were being transported from Kandal to Preah Sihanouk last Wednesday when they took the car while the driver stepped out to urinate. They were stopped in Takeo province and arrested.
“They didn’t have a single cent and they had only plastic bags of clothes,” said Takeo province’s Tram Kak district police deputy Sok Sochea last week. “They don’t have passports. They could have been cheated, and, simply, I think they have been sold.”
On Monday, Keo Sokunthea, spokesman for the Takeo provincial prosecution, said the three Thai nationals had been sent to prison.
