Dutch fugitive arrested in Central Pattaya Beer Bar by Immigration Police.
On Thursday afternoon, Police Colonel Itipon from Pattaya’s Immigration Bureau received a complaint from a bar girl concerning a Dutch national who owns the Cozy Bar Beer 1 in Central Pattaya. She claimed that he would assault girls who work at the bar and would go as far as stab them on occasion for, what he considered to be, fun. Police Captain Jackgarit was assigned to the case and made his way to the bar on Thursday Afternoon and located the suspect, Mr. Wilhelmus Johannes Van Kempen aged 35 from Holland. As soon as the Captain identified himself as an Immigration Officer, Mr. Van Kempen attempted to escape without success. He was taken back to the Immigration Center and a quick check of his passport indicated that the passport had already expired. According to the Colonel, Mr. Van Kempen attempted to offer him 100,000 Baht to clear the case. The offer of money was rejected and the illegal offer was added to the list of charges against him. Mr. Van Kempen then contacted a local Police Officer friend to attempt to clear the matter and this was also unsuccessful. A check with the Dutch Embassy in Bangkok uncovered a list of outstanding warrants regarding firearms offences back in Holland and according to the Embassy he was on their wanted list for some time. He will be handed over to Embassy officials in Bangkok and the man will be deported back to Holland.

Strange this: I'd have thought if someone was on the run...with an expired passport...he'd do whatever was required to maintain a low profile...which would include not pissing anyone off...

well, he's had his fun 'pokin' Thai girls...hope they don't read ThaiRat in the jails otherwise he might get 'poked' a little in return!

<B>Dutch criminal ‘acted like mafia’ in Pattaya Klang protection racket

Boonlua Chatree
A Dutchman who ran a protection racket amongst the local bars was arrested for threatening behavior and discovered to be a wanted man in his own country.
Pattaya immigration police had received a complaint on June 8 from an employee of a beer bar in Pattaya Klang that the man often came to the bar and threatened and assaulted foreign customers. Pol Col Ittipol Ittisarnronnachai, commander of the immigration police in Pattaya, sent a team of officers into the bars around the area and waited for the man to show up.
Wilhelmus Johannes van Kempen

When he did so, the officers moved in to make an arrest. The man put up a fight and tried to pull a gun, but was restrained. He was identified as Wilhelmus Johannes van Kempen, 35, a national of the Netherlands. During the arrest, the immigration police allegedly received a telephone call from a local police officer to let van Kempen go for a payment of 100,000 baht, but the request was refused.
Police found that van Kempen’s passport had expired two years previously and on carrying out a record check with the Netherlands Embassy found out that the man was wanted by the authorities in his own country for a number of crimes that included burglary, possession of weapons, and bank robbery. He had arrived in Thailand in 2004 and opened a bar with associates in Pattaya Klang.
Pol Col Ittipol said that van Kempen was no ordinary criminal. After committing crimes in his own country he had arrived in Thailand and with fellow nationals had acted like mafia, collecting protection from bar owners, and was afraid of no one. He has now been handed over to the Dutch embassy to be transported back to his home country.
