Israeli murder suspects apologize for damaging the image of tourism in Thailand

Thailand is Cambodia's neighbor to the West, and this forum is dedicated to Thai news, stories, reviews, blogs, videos, Thai people and anything else related to the country. A lot of expats have both lived and worked in Cambodia and Thailand, and this area is a place to discuss all aspects of life in Thailand and what's going on there. Most topics are about Bangkok and Pattaya because of their larger populations of expatriates and tourists in those cities, but this is for all things Thai.

Israeli murder suspects apologize to Thailand for damaging the image of tourism
26 January 2018
Thai media reported yesterday that the two Israelis involved in the revenge killing of a man on Koh Samui in broad daylight on Sunday had apologized to the Thai people for damaging the image of tourism.
They also asked the Thais not to criticize Israelis for what happened.

Yesterday Dolev Zuarez, 23, and Eyal Bokal, 25 were taken to Chaweng Beach by the Samui International Hospital for a reenactment. They were wearing balaclavas and bullet proof vests and accompanied by a lawyer appointed by the Israeli embassy and an interpreter.

BECTero reported there was a ,large crown of spectators including foreign tourists to watch the spectacle.

Dolev pointed to the spot where he had used a knife to stab 34 year old Mallil to death. The victim’s girlfriend Rashel Oshana, 31, was also grievously injured after Eyal drove a CRV at their motorcycle. Eyal denies being involved in the stabbing and did not take part in the reconstruction of that part of the crime.

It was earlier reported that the suspects had traveled to Thailand after the victim had tried to run them down and fired at them. He was reportedly given a 20 month sentence.

Speaking before the reenactment the two suspects said that they were sorry to the Thai people in general and the citizens of Koh Samui in particular for doing a bad thing and damaging the image of tourism in the country. They also asked the Thais not to blame Israelis in general.

The pair were arrested in Bangkok at an airport following the crime.

We don't care that you murdered someone. We do care that you damaged the image of tourism in Thailand.
You could be next.

Don't be damn anti-Semite, they donated loads of white phosphorous for Guy Fawkes, and many watched the murders from sofas

So obviously they're helping the terroris..I mean tourism industry. :wink:

Exactly, and that's because it was a hit-squad of Israeli weirdos who crossed the planet to take out a fellow countryman who had pissed them off.
No Thais involved, and no need to look further. The authorities should be thanking the Israelis that they committed the murder in broad daylight before witnesses.

Would be much easier for the thais if they had stabbed him quietly so they coukld blame the ladyboys or thrown him out the windows. These guys are either pscho or thought they had bought enough protection on Samui to get out clean.
