“She” not only turned out
to be a “he”, but “he” was also a thief.

Police have arrested a transvestite who allegedly stole
electronics from a German man after he turned away the bar worker after
discovering “she” was a “he.”
Udomchai Phutom, 24, was apprehended Oct. 19 on charges of stealing an
Apple iPod and GPS navigation device worth more than 10,000 baht from
Cristian Krunicks, 62.
The German told police he’d contracted with Phutom at the Star Bar on
Soi 8, believing the cross-dresser to be a woman. Krunicks took the
ladyboy to his house in Sattahip, where he made the surprising
discovery.
The victim said he told Phutom he’d drive him to the bus station, but
when he used the restroom before departing, the spurned prostitute
allegedly slipped a few of the German’s items into his handbag. The
robbery was not discovered until Krunicks returned home.
