Indian man claims ladyboys in Pattaya stole ₹4 lakh gold chain after hugging and kissing him
An Indian man in Pattaya, Thailand is claiming that his gold necklace was stolen by two transgender women during a late night walk. Police, however, have raised doubts about his story, pointing to inconsistencies in his account. An Indian man in Pattaya claims his gold chain was stolen during a late night walk (Representational image)(Shutterstock) More about the alleged gold theft According to a report in Thaiger, Hemanth Kumer approached Pattaya Police in the early hours of August 5, claiming that his gold necklace had been stolen. The 27-year-old Indian national and jewellery shop owner said that he was walking on Soi Beach Road 13/2 when two 'ladyboys' approached him. Kumer said the scantily-clad layboys offered escort services, which he refused. He claims that the duo continued to follow him despite his refusal. 'They began touching me and hugging me,' Kumer said. The Indian man managed to get rid of the layboys – as the transgenders are colloquially known – and continued with his walk. Within a few minutes, however, he realised that his gold necklace was missing. Kumer claims the gold necklace weighed 40 grams and was worth 150,000 baht (INR 4 lakh approximately). What police say on the theft Kumer approached Pattaya City Police Station around 2.30 am on August 5 and reported the theft to Police Lieutenant Kriangkrai Kaewphiphop. Based on his description of the alleged thieves, officers were dispatched to scour the area. However, no arrests were made and the suspects were not caught. The superintendent of Pattaya City Police Station also ordered a review of CCTV footage from the area. However, police officers say there are inconsistencies in Kumer's version of events. 'There are inconsistencies in his statement,' said Pol. Lt. Kriangkrai. 'We're investigating all angles. If the report turns out to be false, Kumer could face charges for filing a false complaint.' Officers continue to analyse CCTV videos as they investigate the case. (Also read: Indian tourists in Pattaya complain bar girl's chest was 'too small' after she undressed, call cops at 2:30 am)

RCB captain Rajat Patidar's old phone number gets reassigned to Chhattisgarh teen; boys receive calls from Virat Kohli, AB de Villiers
Indian cricketer Rajat Patidar recently faced an unusual situation involving his old mobile number, two young cricket fans, and local police intervention. According to an NDTV report, Patidar's old mobile number, the one in question, was inactive for over 90 days, and was reassigned by his telecom provider. The number was purchased by a teenager named Manish from Gariaband district in Chhattisgarh, who activated it with a Jio SIM card in late June. After activating the number, Manish and his friend Khemraj noticed the WhatsApp profile still showed Rajat Patidar's photo. Further, they received calls from famous cricketers, including Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers, who were trying to contact Patidar. Unaware of the number's past owner, the boys were surprised. Later, Patidar contacted Manish directly and asked for the number back, explaining that it was important for his communication with coaches, teammates, and close contacts. However, Manish and Khemraj didn't believe it was really Patidar. They said, 'And we're MS Dhoni,' and refused the request. Patidar then warned the teenagers of legal action. Within ten minutes, local police arrived at Manish's house, after which the boys returned the SIM card. Khemraj said the experience was unforgettable. 'I got to speak to Kohli because of a wrong number. My life's goal is complete,' NDTV quoted Khemraj. A guy from Chhattisgarh purchased a new sim which turned out to be Rajat Patidar's old number. – He received calls from Virat Kohli and AB De Villiers, but after Patidar informed the Police, the man returned the sim. — Mufaddal Vohra (@mufaddal_vohra) August 10, 2025 The incident quickly caught the Internet's attention, prompting a range of reactions. 'Imagine buying a new sim and getting calls from Virat and ABD (crying emojis),' a user wrote. 'What a wild twist! From random sim purchase to getting calls from Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers. Glad the man did the right thing and returned it after Patidar's complaint — truly a once-in-a-lifetime mix-up!' another user commented. 'It seems like Patidar is misusing his celebrity status! What's the guy's fault if he ended up with Patidar's old SIM? Patidar didn't even inform ABD and VK about his new number,' a third user reacted.
