    Belgian National Arrested in Songkhla for Theft and Overstay

    Hat Yai, Songkhla – Thai authorities apprehended a Belgian man on August 2nd, 2024, who had overstayed his visa and was allegedly involved in a string of hotel thefts across Phuket, Krabi, and Songkhla.


    The Songkhla Immigration Office received a tip-off from the Kor Hong Police in Hat Yai, Songkhla, regarding a theft at a local hotel. The suspect, identified only as Mr. Ali (26), a Belgian national, had broken into a Malaysian tourist’s room. Upon investigation, police discovered that Mr. Ali had overstayed his visa by 63 days.

    During the arrest, authorities seized evidence including 52,000 Baht in cash, five mobile phones, two Garmin watches, two Malaysian credit cards, and a Hermes belt. The total value of the recovered items is estimated at approximately 200,000 baht, leading police to believe they were stolen.


    Further investigation revealed that Mr. Ali was also wanted in connection with similar thefts at hotels in Phuket and Krabi. He has been taken to the Songkhla Police Station to face charges of theft and visa overstay.

    In my hippie years, in the early 70s, I found myself working for an agency in Antwerp in various factory jobs and discovered, among many other things, that there was a significant local population of Moroccans. Good lads and would share their chicken and rice lunch packs if I hadnÂ’t time to sort my sardine sarnie out before shift start.

    The thing was, the employment agency that found us work was run by a local crime syndicate and the office was staffed by thugs, particularly on paydays when we had to collect what was owed to us. The bastards would deduct imaginary costs from our hours worked but we took it on the chin not least because there was always a meathead or two standing around fixing the queue with lairy looks. I say we, but not the Moroccan lads. TheyÂ’d cuss and swear at the managers and stand their ground demanding a fair crack of whip. It didnÂ’t matter that they ended up getting thrown out into the street and threatened with a hammer every time, theyÂ’d still fight for their rights. Credit where credit was due.

    And they play good football.

    that was then. before radicalisation, politics, diversity, quotas and racism were our mantras. few gave a fuck about colour, race or religion. they were the best of times and never to be repeated.

    Nope, its completely tangential to the OP no matter how much you try to pretend otherwise. You're an old coffien dodger unsuccessfully trying to regale everyone with random tales of the past, more than half of which are probably bullshit.

    pull up that blanket around your waist and stop dribbling.

    I know you’re not blessed with an over abundance of intelligence but, surely, you can’t be that stupid, can you.

    Can someone else explain it to him, I can’t be arsed.

    Make an outrageous bigoted statement.

    get called on it.


    claim it was a masterful troll.



    not far different to Trump claiming Harris is not black.

    Can we please stop all this bickering. Surely it’s not beyond the wit of you all to just get along nicely and act in a civilised, courteous manner.
