Bira Circuit Motorcycle Thieves Caught

[SuperTireGuy]

My friend James who runs motorcycle track days at Bira had some of his bikes/property stolen.

 

Sadly a track security guard was killed during the theft.

 

Glad they caught the scumbags. Looks like they will be checking into the Thai Monkey House and not checking out anytime soon.

Four Men arrested following Bira Racing Circuit Murder and theft.

 

On Thursday Morning, Police Major General Bundit, the Provincial Commander of Police, led a press conference to announce the arrest of four people aged between 15 and 23 who were arrested in connection with Wednesday’s murder case from the Bira International Racing Circuit. It was also announced that the 3 racing motorbikes taken from the circuit had also been recovered. The suspects were arrested on the strength of an arrest warrant issued by the Pattaya Court following evidence collected at the scene and through the murder investigation run by Banglamung Police. All suspects confessed to their part in the murder and theft and later on Thursday a reconstruction of events leading up to the killing and theft took place. The men demonstrated how they cut through fences and crept up on the sleeping security guard in the early hours of Wednesday Morning. Following his death, the 3 racing bikes were put on the back of the pick-up. We understand that the investigators were able to catch the men because the three bikes were posted on an internet site later on Wednesday and were for sale for a total of 1.2 Million Baht. One of the suspects aged only 15 confessed to striking the security guard on the head and killing him and a further member of the group is a motorbike racer and his older brother is a racing judge at the circuit. The case will be heard in court next week.
