5 Star Hotel Theft from British Guest by Pattaya Bar Girl
Posted on September 29, 2014 at 6:26 am


Over the weekend, the Pattaya Police Chief, announced the arrest of a 40 year old Pattaya Bar Worker, who is alleged to have stolen money from the room safe of a 56 year old British Tourist.

The incident occurred at the Dusit Thani Resort in North Pattaya, inside a room occupied by Mr. John Sargant from Redhill in Surrey. Earlier he had invited Khun Tirapon to his room and after 3 days of being together, she suddenly left but decided to reportedly steal 2,900 Pounds Sterling from his room safe.

During Questioning the suspect claimed that she watched Mr. Sargant use the room safe and was able to remember the security code. After she left, the money was exchanged for Thai Baht and allegedly handed to Khun Tikamporn aged 56 who the suspect claims is a close friend.

Police were able to locate the two women at the Oh La La Beer Bar situated close to the Dolphin Roundabout and only meters away from the Hotel. A total of 100,600 Baht was recovered and a small amount of pounds sterling. Khun Tirapon claimed she was angry that Mr. Sargant did not provide her with any financial compensation in exchange for her providing companionship, which led her to steal the money from the safe.

Both women were later charged over the incident and Mr. Sargant, who was clearly emotional at the press conference announcing the arrests, thanked the Hotel and Police for their assistance.

- Grizzled, yet clueless old sexpat prowler ....check
- wearing a wife beater shirt ...check
- haggard, past-her-prime bar girl thief ...check
- police photos with the usual "point to the suspect while she points to the money she stole" pic ...check



The other photos are kinda funny too, with the local cop showing sympathy for the forlorn farang.

I think it's probably just you who doesn't feel sympathy for old people getting robbed, or think it's somehow funny. Personally, I am very protective of old people.

Old guys can't win. If he took a young bargirl, he would be slaughtered. But he took an older BG, and both him and her get criticised.
Instead of a negative, bitchy , K440 type view of Pattaya tourists. I think most would think.......
Poor old tourist, getting robbed.
I'm glad someone is putting food on an old bargirls table.
Sounds like a good old bloke, that would get so emotional when thanking the police.
Being a Brit tourist , he is probably melting, yet doesn't know about the Phnom Penh fashion police and their " razor keyboards" !!!

Nice to hear a different perspective for a change. However we all know the score, I wouldn't expect sympathy from anyone given that the risks of inviting bar girls back to your room are regularly well reported. I

Following the forums here for a while as a Pattayite I find it amusing how the expats here try to maintain that the scene is somehow different and more respectable in PP presumably to make themselves feel more comfortable about the place they live in and assume some form of superiority over everywhere that is not PP. The hostess bar scene sums it up for me. " Not all girls that work in hostess bars are hookers - it's not like Thailand " was one post the other day. A dubious assertion from both sides of the coin I would say.
