A groggy Sharif Yasin, 62, filed a complaint with police at his hotel off Walking Street July 21. Unable to answer officers’ questions, Yasin allowed investigators to inspect his ransacked room for missing valuables. They also recovered two half-eaten kebabs, fruit and a half-drained beer.
Police released this security camera image of the suspect and predict an imminent arrest.
Hotel employees reported the Aussie national had brought to his room a hooker he rented on Beach Road, who had stayed about five hours before hurriedly leaving at 1 a.m.
Police have a security camera image of the suspect as well as a name she recorded with hotel staffers, although such names are often false.
