Apparently the thieves weren't caught red handed, therefore I assume that between the reporting and the chase, the poor guy must have spent a couple of days with the local coppers, possibly paying countless small drinks. No surprise he looks so happy retrieving his 300 bht kaoh San road backpack copy while still missing wallet, passport, credit cards etc.. :no:

I think I'd look sad if I had to pose for a picture with a "returned" backpack where everything of value was already long gone...

It seems like there are a lot of crimes happened on foreigners in Battambang recently. I had a great time visiting there, but so sad to hear all these things.
បើសិនធ្វើចេះ ចេះឲ្យគេកោត បើសិនធ្វើឆោត ឆោតឲ្យគេអាណិត។

If you know a lot, know enough to make them respect you, if you are stupid, be stupid enough so they can pity you.
