At a police press conference, the three confessed they broke the windows because they thought the van was still owned by a man named Noy who owes 50,000 baht to Bandit Na Dara, 40, who is currently a monk in one of Sattahip’s temples.

They didn’t know the van was sold to Jularath before Noy went upcountry.
