    Ranong: 'Missing' tourist turns up in prison

    'Missing' tourist turns up in prison | Bangkok Post: breakingnews

    'Missing' tourist turns up in prisonA 22-year-old Swiss woman reported missing last month has been found in the custody of Ranong police.

    Nora Janisch Tscherina last made contact with her family on Dec 22. She arrived in Thailand on Dec 8.

    Worrying about her safety, Ms Tscherina's mother posted information about her daughter on websites and social media, which prompted the Tourist Police Division to search for the 22-year-old.

    Pol Lt Col Pattaya Klum-aim, an inspector of Ranong tourist police, said Tuesday Ms Tscherina had been found in Ranong Provincial Prison.

    She had been arrested by immigration officers in Ranong on Dec 25 after allegedly stealing a camera from an officer.

    Ms Tscherina had also overstayed her tourist visa, which had expired on Dec 22.

    Her family and officials from the Swiss embassy on Tuesday visited her at the prison and submitted a bail request with a 130,000-baht bond.

    There's a type?

    But odd, probably told her he would fix the visa for a shag and then stiffed her.

    So she's been in custody for over 4 weeks for a minor theft charge and they didn't notify her embassy or allow her contact or notify her family?

    And this is the monkey system that the UK extradites its citizens to.

    I think the friends and family of this lady needs to tap into the ex FBI / CIA / MI5 / Mossad people on here to get to the bottom of this. Sounds very fishy indeed.

    "She had been arrested by immigration officers in Ranong on Dec 25 after allegedly stealing a camera from an officer."

    Swiss student tourist Janisch out on bail


    Ms Janisch was released on bail after her mother appeared in Ranong Court to post 130,000-baht bail bond. Photo: Kritsada Mueanhawong

    PHUKET: A Swiss national held by Ranong Immigration since December 25 on charges of stealing an officer’s camera was released on bail yesterday after her mother appeared in Ranong Court to post 130,000-baht bail bond.

    Unaware that her daughter, Tscherina Nora Janisch, was being held in a Thai prison north of Phuket, Elizabeth Maria Janisch initially reported Tscherina as missing when she hadn’t heard from her in three weeks (story here).

    Tscherina, 22, must present herself in court every 30 days and is not allowed to travel out of Thailand until...
