French Man Robbed by Transgender Thief in Pattaya

Pattaya —

A French man in Pattaya was robbed by a transgender individual who slashed his bag and stole his mobile phone before fleeing the scene.

At 2:00 AM on August 23rd, 2024, Mr. Pascat Gaston Pair Francais, a 71-year-old French national, filed a complaint with Pattaya police. He reported that while he was riding a songthaew from Soi Buakhao to Soi 6, somebody secretly slashed his bag and stole his belongings.

Mr. Francais said while he was on a songthaew, a transgender individual was also a passenger. Upon arriving at Soi 6, Mr. Francais disembarked and discovered that his black bag had been slashed with a knife, and his Samsung Galaxy A34 mobile phone was missing. He immediately reported the incident to the police.

According to the victim’s girlfriend (name withheld upon request), she and her foreign partner had been playing pool at a bar in Soi Buakhao before heading back to their accommodation. They had taken a songthaew from Soi Buakhao to the Tops intersection and then boarded another songthaew to Soi 6.

Upon reaching Soi 6, the couple got off the vehicle, only to find that Mr. Francais’s phone was missing and the bag had been cut. The girlfriend said the only other passenger on the songthaew was a transgender individual, leading them to believe that this person was responsible for the theft.
