Residents of Pattaya’s Soi Khao Talo have expressed their frustration and fear over a serial burglar who has repeatedly stolen from their rental rooms.
On July 9th, 2024, reporters from The Pattaya News received complaints from residents in Soi Khao Talo about a burglar who has repeatedly broken into their rental rooms and stolen their belongings. The angry residents provided CCTV footage clearly capturing the suspect’s actions.
According to 43-year-old Ms. Hathairat (surname withheld for her privacy), her room has been broken into twice, possibly by the same thief. She said this has forced her to live in constant fear, worried that the thief might return at any time. Ms. Hathairat expressed disappointment in the alleged lack of action from the Pattaya police, stating that despite filing reports, no arrests have been made, and the burglar continues to target her neighborhood. She added that other rooms in the complex have also been burgled, and their police reports have been met with similar inaction.
Mrs. Jamreung Panprateep, the 57-year-old owner of the rental property, stated that the victims are losing hope in seeking the police’s help due to the lack of progress. She pleaded with the authorities to speed up their investigation and arrest the suspects before they strike again.
