Police have arrested a transvestite who allegedly tried to rob a drunk Israeli on Pattaya Beach.
Anatoly Akushev, 47, was saved by a passer-by who called police after seeing Rukley Thongmak, 31, take the visibly intoxicated tourist behind some folded up beach chairs for a short-time liaison near Soi Post Office Oct. 22.
Searching the ladyboy, police found no evidence, but the good Samaritan showed police where he’d seen the suspect throw Akushev’s wallet under an umbrella. Inside the wallet, police found 5,200 baht and Akushev’s driver’s license.
