Khlong Tan District Police have arrested five foreigners, including a woman, for alleged involvement in the robbery and assault of a British national.
The five suspects have been identified as Dane Abdullahi Ahmed Saney Mohamed, British nationals Shafiq Sumya, Ahmed Saeed Yasin and Hussein Mohamed Hassan Sheekh, as well as a woman whose nationality and name are still unknown.
The arrest was made after the British victim, a crypto currency trader, sought police help, claiming that he had partied with the group in an apartment in the Khlong Tan area of Bangkok.
He alleged that he had been tied up and beaten by the group, who demanded assets from him.
In the room, where they were arrested, two mobile phones, two luxury wristwatches, a credit card, and 24,000 baht in cash, in total worth over Bt3 million, were found.
