Hotel Room theft results in Iranian arrest in South Pattaya

Posted on February 9, 2013 at 1:57 pm

An Iranian, who claims he is well connected to local “foreign Police” who work on Walking Street, was arrested early on Saturday Morning, accused of stealing cash and valuables from a Central Pattaya Hotel Room.

Earlier this week, the suspect, Mr. Ali Esmaili Bahmanabad aged 36, reportedly befriended two fellow Iranians at the Airport in Bangkok, and persuaded them to join Mr. Ali in Pattaya where he claimed to run an Iranian Restaurant. The two men agreed to go to Pattaya and rented a room at a Hotel in Soi Baukao where all three stayed in the same room.

Mr. Ali then suggested to the men that they all go to Bangkok for a few days and once again the other two agreed and the trip to Bangkok took place. While in Bangkok Mr. Ali claimed he had to return to Pattaya first on urgent business and left the other two there.

Mr. Ali is alleged to have returned to the Hotel in Soi Baukao and persuaded the receptionist to hand over the room key. He is then alleged to have stolen 2,200 US Dollars, 9,600 Baht and a digital camera from the room.

When the other two returned to Pattaya they realized what had happened and reported the incident to Police with the help of a legal adviser Khun Porntipar aged 25. An arrest warrant for Mr. Ali was obtained and after some days of searching for him, Mr. Ali was found to be living in a Hotel in Soi 17 off Pattaya Third Road where he was subsequently arrested at 6am on Saturday.

Mr. Ali denied allegations of theft and claimed he knew some powerful “Foreign Police” on Walking Street who would clear the problem for him. The problem was not cleared as predicted and he now remains behind bars pending a Court appearance.

For as much as I hate ragheads in general, I have to say that Iranians are the most considerate and polite of the lot. That's how you distinguish them immediatly from Arabs and Pakis.

Plus, not many of them immigrate to Europe. They seem to have their own civilization (too bad it's islamic) and the will to defend it against all external aggressions (Israeli, Saudi and US-led "coalitions"). I've got respect for them.

“The subject of Thailand is an anathema to Western womanhood. Mention of the T-word evokes almost violent reactions amongst most Western women, who understandably hate the thought of Thailand as it represents an alternative to their control."

Broke my safe the conts.

Wrong way round mate, while Iran is committed to destroying Israel, Israel is only committed to defending itself against crazy nations let by fanatics bent on driving Israel into the sea. Hamaas of course is another such bunch of murdering bastards who play the victim card to perfection. Surely this guy should have his hands cut off?

Iran has a few crazy politicians, same as us and israel has nothing to do with iranian people. They are lovely except the scum that is in Pattaya.

Tom Sawyer

I wouldn't lift a finger to help Israel and its time Americans wake up and realize that they are actually the real IDF and have been for years. Send my kid to fight some Mideast war? Not a chance

why the fuck would you share a hotel room with someone you met at the airport?

Is that type of jumper legal in Iran ?
I though as they were Persians at least they would have more taste than thier Arab neighbours ..

CaptainNemo

Well, air hostesses get the room paid for on expenses, for a start...

Tom Sawyer

Born in Tehran, still has an Arab name doesn't he?
