Thai police have arrested a Russian national on Samui Island on charges of robbing a fellow Russian of 1.8 million baht in Bitcoins.

 

Samui police say that the suspect is believed to be a member of a Russian gang, which has been preying on fellow citizens known to be engaged in Bitcoin investment businesses.

 

The victim, identified as Yevgini, filed a complaint with Samui police on Friday, claiming that he had been robbed by six Russians as he was having coffee with his wife at a shop in Taling Ngam sub-district.

 

Four Russians arrived at the coffee shop in a black van and were joined by two others, who arrived on a motorcycle. Yevgini alleges that the men approached him and threatened to harm him if he did not transfer his Bitcoins, estimated to be worth about 112 million baht, to them.
